Change and persistence of hunting & dietary practices among Kadazandusun-Murut (KDM) bearded pig hunters in Sabah, Malaysia

This dataset consists of 38 semi-structured interviews that we conducted
with Kadazandusun-Murut (KDM) hunters in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. The
dataset is based on information shared during over 50 hours of time with
the hunters. The data cover a variety of topics about the relationships
between KDM hunters and bearded pigs, the favored game animal for this
hunting group. We asked the hunters about their hunting and dietary
practices, changes in hunting practices, and perceived changes in
bearded pig behavior over time. These data were collected prior to the
2020/2021 outbreak in Sabah of African Swine Fever, which caused
the collapse of a number of bearded pig populations throughout
the state.
