  2. Grande parte das terras dos #indígenas Ayoreo-Totobiegosode foram roubadas e vendidas a pecuaristas, os quais desmatam para pôr gado no lugar da floresta. Isto forçou os indígenas isolados a viverem em fuga. #Paraguay #indigenous #uncontacted #Ayoreo survivalbrasil.org/povos/ayoreo

  3. Peruvian government fails to protect uncontacted indigenous people in the Amazon.

    Eusebio Ríos, the vice-president of the regional Indigenous federation Fenamad, which makes up 39 Indigenous groups in Peru’s Madre de Dios and Cusco regions, said on Tuesday: “There are people wounded, dead, missing – we don’t know what’s happening or what has happened.”

  4. "Uncontacted Amazon tribe photographed in unusual sighting near logging area"

    :catthinking:

    "Uncontacted" you say?

    I don't talk often about this, but on my path from my bachelor's degree in computer engineering to my master's in South Asia studies, I did a detour through art, and anthropology.

    I remember how my anthropology teacher talked about supposedly "uncontacted" tribes of the Amazon that so-and-so had "found."

    The "uncontacted" bit turned out to be hogwash. They were uncontacted only if you ignored all the other folks with whom they had regular contact.

    :holdthepain:

    I put this into the same category as Columbus "discovering" America.

    Journalists... so gullible...

  5. The #uncontacted tribes, and the #forests where they live, are incredibly #vulnerable, fragile,
    and strong too

    This thought makes me joyful, because true life comes from vulnerability

    Thank you #survivalInternational for having protecting them so far
