Jungle Paparazzo in Airplane Photographs ‘Uncontacted’ Tribe in Brazil
Wild story. I’m guessing an adventure travel outfitter is already organizing an Amazon trek, complete with an overnight stay with the never-before-contacted tribe.
Not to sure of the validity of this story - BBC or not. Are there really any “un-contacted tribes” left in the world?
And, as an “adventure travel outfitter” would it really be so unspeakable to organise a tour here - obviously with the consent of the tribe - which would be needed if they were to overnight with them anyway???
