Answer 2

Answer: defied

I assume you are looking for the definition of "flouted." "To flout" means to scorn at, or to treat something with disdain and contempt. If someone flouts the law, it means that he does not respect the law. In this case, the people who flouted the law were poachers who were interested in making more money than they could usually make in their regular business.
