Uncontacted tribe filmed on Brazil-Peru border - 30 May 08
Uploaded by: AlJazeeraEnglish
Video Description:
Paul Allen reports on one of the world's last remaining uncontacted tribes.
Brazil's government has released pictures of a previously unseen community of people living in the Amazonian rainforest.
It is believed they have never had previous contact with the outside world.
They were located on the border between Brazil and Peru.
The footage was taken from the air by Funai, a Brazilian government foundation, dedicated to the protection of indigenous tribes.
Funai has a policy to not contact tribes similar to this one, and instead try to prevent invasions of their land so they remain autonomous.
But the agency warns the tribe, and others like it believed to be living in the Amazon, that they are at risk from illegal logging.

First of all... that forest is our(brazilian) forest... and we do with her everything that we want.... If you don't like it... ask to your president Bush what he think about the Kioto protocol...
Before talking about the problems of our country as your problem, you have to learn about it..
As Wilfort said, americans thinks that Brazilians speak spanish and that our capital is Buenos Aires.
Americans didn't know that Bagda is(was???) the capital of Irak until they destroyed that place...
Maybe, in some months americans will know about the capital of Iran.
