remote hilly areas, basic infrastructure and services, like drivable roads, electricity, clean drinking water, education, communication and health services are lacking. The majority of Kulungs are dependent on traditional agriculture, cultivating millet and maize; they are also hunters and fishermen. Due to unproductive land conditions, they are not able to produce adequate food from their farms. They are compelled to migrate in search of potering and agricultural work for their livelihood. They practice traditional religion Kirati and Buddhism. Unlike most Hindus and Buddhists in Nepal, the Kulung bury their dead instead of cremating them.
