[Documentary] Busted: Five myths about uncontacted tribes...
This is a subject dear to heart. I once posted long ago about the Zo é tribe of Brazil. Yet this is applies to all such tribes.

There are more than one hundred uncontacted tribes around the world
Uncontacted tribes are Indigenous peoples who avoid all contact with outsiders. They’re not backward and primitive relics of a remote past, they are our contemporaries and a vitally important part of humankind’s diversity. Where their rights are respected, they continue to thrive. But their survival is under threat from violence, disease and racism.
Guardians
Tribal peoples are the best guardians of the natural world, and evidence proves that tribal territories are the best barrier to deforestation. This image shows the land of an uncontacted tribe as an island of green forest in a sea of deforestation (the orange line is the territory’s border). It is home to the “Last of his Tribe”, a lone man who’s the last survivor of his people, who were probably massacred by cattle ranchers occupying their land.
The best way to prevent the destruction of the Amazon rainforest is to campaign for the land rights of uncontacted tribes.
Genocide
Whole populations of uncontacted tribes are being wiped out by genocidal violence from outsiders who steal their land and resources, and by diseases like flu and measles to which they have no resistance.
