This article discusses the environmental ethics of Indigenous herbalists inhabiting the Phulwari ki Nal Wildlife Sanctuary in Rajasthan, India. Our respondents protected forests from activities like illicit tree felling because (a) they realized that their own human well-being is tied to the fate of the natural world, and (b) wild animals such as leopards form non-human communities that intrinsically deserve to live and prosper. Framing herbalists' environmental behavior as egocentric or altruistic (distinctions made in social psychological theories of environmentally significant behavior) oversimplifies the attitudes and behaviors. These distinctions only have meaning when the object of behavior is conceptualized as largely separate and distinct from the self, which is not the case in this Indigenous Rajasthani context. Here, humans and animals are understood to be interdependent family members who share substance, interests, and obligations to each other. |
