???Uncontacted Indians?!??? ??? contact an anthropologist!: "The source of a lot of the information about ???uncontacted people??? is Survival International, a group that I generally think struggles valiantly for the human rights of groups who wish to remain isolated from national populations and preserve their ways of life. But in this case, I wonder if they???re doing a bit of harm with the good, by bringing the whole ???uncontacted Indian??? thing to the table."
One of the reasons these groups are attracting attention is that they are under pressure, especially on the Peruvian side of the border, not only from the usual suspects (miners, loggers, and ranchers), but also from a French petroleum company that wants to drill in the area. Why can???t we go with THAT story
