Description
In this National Geographic News article, read about people in the Peruvian Amazon region who live in isolation as their ancestors did thousands of years ago. To shield them from the intrusion of developers and natural resource extractors, human rights advocates recommend protecting the land where they now live. Links to a photo gallery, a map of South America, and related stories and Web sites are also found on this page.
