TRIBE SPOTTED IN BRAZIL
This is kind of outside my blog but I’m always interested on the unnatural stuff that we don’t get to see daily.. As much as I would like to learn more about this Tribe, I hope they leave ‘em alone and let them be.
BBC NEWS, 30 May 2008
One of South America’s few remaining uncontacted indigenous tribes has been spotted and photographed on the border between Brazil and Peru.
The Brazilian government says it took the images to prove the tribe exists and help protect its land.
The pictures, taken from an aeroplane, show red-painted tribe members brandishing bows and arrows.
More than half the world’s 100 uncontacted tribes live in Brazil or Peru, Survival International says.
Stephen Corry, the director of the group - which supports tribal people around the world - said such tribes would “soon be made extinct” if their land was not protected.
‘Monumental crime’
Survival International said that although this particular group is increasing in number, others in the area are at risk from illegal logging.
