  1. The prospect is not impossible.  New species of flora and fauna are being revealed regularly and the Amazon has hundreds of thousands of acrege that noone has ever seen.


  2. Yes... I lived in Saudi Arabia & in my travels saw people that wouldn't even look towards you!  Weird but that's their life... they don't know anything else.  They feel sorry for us!

  3. ughhh yea m8. The amazon holds many dangers, and not all of it ahs been explored on foot, and when a heli scouts it it can only see wahts not covered by trees, and foilage. Yea its more than like there are other tribes.

  4. You likely  saw the report about a yet-undiscovered tribe 'way back in the Amazon: yeah, it's true. Now leave them be in peace, without our curious blend of diseases, and missionaries- that way, they just might survive beyond our degrading "civilization".

  5. I don't believe you.

  6. Yes I think its possible

  7. This is hard to  figure out.  There are tribes who have not encountered humans from modernity.  Saying they should be alone to live without our problems is saying they can die  or many children die from no antibiotics, then on the other hand they probably haven't built up any immunity to things like the chicken pox, flu and measles.  I don't know what is best for them., Maybe it's up to them to decide, not us.  In the picture , of the flyover, they look like they were going to use spears toward the airplane.  I really can't say what is best.

  8. Yes, I believe these tribes still exist and it is a shame they were discovered.  Now the 'civilized' man will disrupt their entire way of life. They will be introduced to to the 'modern' way of life, to the vices of 'modern' society, drinking, smoking, dependence on drugs, the intolerance of religious beliefs, killing animals for sport, destroying nature for greed. Their world has now changed forever.

  9. The fact that they were shooting arrows at a helicopter does not constitute scientific proof that they have never been in contact with the outside world.

    Arrow flowing in one's way usually mean you are not wanted by the individual providing the arrows.

    That is just me thinking out loud.
