Shri Guru Jambho Ji told BISHNOIs that in his absence, the black buck should be revered as his manifestation. That belief continues. Hunting black buck for BISHNOIs is like killing our Guru. One call of Shikar (hunt) and hundreds of villagers assemble to teach the offenders a lesson.
BISHNOIs can kill their own children before let these animals be killed. BISHNOI women suckle motherless deer, die to save trees and go hungry to provide food for animals. BISHNOIs have been identified as conservators of ecology and environment. It is not unusual to see deer foraging in our fields without fear.
