Stunning new photos taken over a jungle in Brazil reveal new images of one of the last uncontacted tribal groups on the planet.

The photos reveal a thriving, healthy community living in Brazil near the Peruvian border, with baskets full of manioc and papaya fresh from their gardens, said Survival International, a rights organization working to preserve tribal communities and organizations worldwide

"The illegal loggers will destroy this tribe," agreed Survival International’s director Stephen Corry. "It's vital that the Peruvian government stop them before time runs out

primitive tribes as an interesting animal that's to be ejnoyed by observing

We're all insects to the liberal elitists, except that we are the cockroaches and the primitives are the preying mantises.

LOLZ, go to the “Survival International” website.
They have loads of videos of cameramen walking around with what they
call “isolated tribes” and how Survival International is there to make sure they aren’t bothered. Do they NOT see the hypocrisy of their stupidity.

If they were really about conservation they would have a policy of “know where they are, and stay clear away”. All these folk want to do is go play with them like toys while telling others they can’t.

That said, I think its fascinating to learn about isolated and undiscovered cultures, but to to pimp your line by lying about what you are doing is just sad. I prefer the National Graphic way.

“A spokeswoman for the group told FoxNews.com that the Brazilian government has an entire division dedicated to helping out uncontacted tribes.

“In fact, there are more than one hundred uncontacted tribes around the world,” the group explains.

BS. If the government is helping them, then they are CONTACTED.

So they’re an uncontacted tribe - and they’re about to be destroyed by eeeeeviiiil loggers. Which is it? Cause it can’t be both.

Precisely. They treat these people like zoo animals.

The truth is that there is nothing wonderful about preserving stone age cultures. The vast majority of these people cease to exist because they prefer to leave it behind once they have an opportunity to.
