One of Brazil's last uncontacted Indian tribes has been spotted in the far western Amazon jungle near the Peruvian border. The Indians were sighted in an Ethno-Environmental Protected Area along the Envira River in flights over remote Acre state.
The Brazilian government foundation said it photographed 'strong and healthy' warriors, six huts and a large planted area. But it was not known to which tribe they belonged, the group said.

That blacked up chick looks mighty fine, in a fuzzy jpeg kinda way.
The history behind this pic is more complex than it could look. The tribes in the region are facing problems with Peruvian invaders who extract wood illegally of his reserves, principally the cedar, which is smuggled for Europe. The area is very remote, but always when possible the Brazilian army gives help to the natives sending military help.
This is very cool. would love to learn more about them
