The Javari Reserve in Brazil’s Amazon is home to numerous tribes who have never had contact with the outside world.
But illegal hunters and fishermen are encroaching on their space.
Native trackers patrol the rainforest to keep the tribes safe from threats.
But as Al Jazeera’s Monica Yanakiew reports, they have also become targets.

Interesting how they’re also having to patrol for intransigent christian missionairies intent on spreading their “message” where it’s not wanted and it’s illegal for them to go.
Church and cocaine = civilization
Indigenous tribes across globe suffer this same violence. from Australia to Amazon.. “protected” areas are targeted by poachers & Corporations. Sinful!
Poachers are like pick pocketers, teens and individuals out to steal small amounts from other individuals.
It’s organized group, the petro (gas and crude oil) corporations, giant farming and fishing industries… as well as the governments themselves, through neglect and through forcibly taking lands from native groups, by moving them around, by isolating them on purpose to make them die out… those are the real few groups & entities to fear from…
Historically, governments have been the most dangerous entities where Natives are concerned. You have some ways to deal with non-governmental groups and thieves; you have no power against a government that decides where you live.
Most of the Native Americans in North America, for example, had been relocated to the less or least desirable places… but even then, they’re not safe; if gold, oil, or diamond are found in those new places, the government could come and take it all or relocated powerless Natives again… or trick elders to sell the lands for “exploration”….
And also by missionaries
@@bonitobonita9263 one dude. Get over it. Stop crying you pusy
We were all indigenous tribes once
Can’t wait for bolsonaro to be gone….
Arm the indigenous people.
Then they will be sure to become extinct as they kill other tribes as resources diminish.
To arm them, more than they are armed wit their own weapons, would mean their end.
@@JaimeMesChiens Natives don’t war with other Natives unless they are thives or bad. White European man have you brainwashed.
i hope the indigenous tribes keep up their awesome work of protecting their tribes and lands
Can we say the same about europeans?
@@thedarkestwhite9460 read my comment
The amazon will be destroyed soon enough
❤❤❤
Kill the intruder
Such a shame.
They are. Following the footsteps of Christopher columbus who killed 4 million red_indians
Love Indigenous people
Go visit Yanomami
Yep, i love europeans. I want guns in my Native Italy. Ready and armed to repel outisiders 😉
🙏💓💔
Outsiders leave the area alone.
They are following the footsteps of Christopher columbus who killed 4 million red_indians
Why? They need diversity
@@HeadhuntexGamerwhat??
The Amazon needs its own independence from Brazil
So they can be invaded for their resources right? Or would the “grand amazon army” keep out foreign powers?
No, Amazon is brazilian land. Cry all you want.
@@Daniel-oc8sx Rather native tribes’ land
@@kingsleykester8167 Natives would be starving if not for Brazilian government assistance, from your first world reality all you see is a romanticized version of things.
@@Daniel-oc8sx The so called brazil is the ancestral homeland of native tribes. Others came from some where and are living on a stolen land
Sad, human’s WILL kill everything in the NAME OF GREED……..good people must help stop this GREED, these poachers are not staving,it’s greed,don’t confuse the two
That’s mainly just the West and China. Other cultures generally had a more sustainable relationship with nature.
What the report is about: Illegal fishing and catching of caimans and turtles in protected area. Indigenous patrols do their best but are underfunded relative to the Colombian drug cartels who drive the illegal business.
What the guy who makes the headlines think: Can’t we mention uncontacted tribes?
Leave these people alone!
Like the genocide of native Americans. Not only that, but the destruction of the Earth’s “lungs.”
Fight for your land brothers
That’s what the elites around the world should be protecting, our planet home instead of flying into space. Humanity is doom and gloom with climate catastrophes…
take all four jabs.
The world 🌎🌍 watching from Columbus Ohio
They should shoot first.
Thanks for covering this issue.
Columbia and Brazil = corruption…simple logic
Mining and plantation of soy and cattle are also a threat to the Amazon forest and indigenous survival.
No, It isn’t a treat
Cattle helps native species survive in the wild. Brazil seems to be a Indigenous country & not Portugese.
Evangelist
soul poachers and tree poachers, it’s a combined threat.
So why did y’all say “WHITE MEN” , when you clearly show different people responsible for this? Such a racist report!
my boy thesalukie got a yt video from this area few days ago, through his lens learnt some
Am from Jamaica and I really love to see this here in my country. This is juss like the Marronn’s
🇿🇦🇧🇩 A Love From My Bangladesh Comilla Daudkandi Taltoli Village 🇧🇩
What a shame, we need to persevere our flora and fauna, not kill it. Patria querida, ya basta!🇨🇴
I hope these guys get eating by snake
Your title doesn’t make sense
Starts report of a racist blaming white men… Rest of report is of locals destroying their own culture and wildlife. Mainstream media at its finest.
It’s saddening how reckless and irresponsible mankind treats nature and it’s resources.
The purpose of this video is to put the world against Brazil because that way you make more money. Why is it that in the United States we don’t talk about Indians anymore?
Not a clue
Shoot the poachers & illegal loggers…
Amazing.
thank u al jazeera im brazilian
Amazonia é brasileira e pronto
Disappointing
Until oil is discovered there. Africa was once uncontacted until the foreigners came with religion then colonized us and made us loose our tradition, made trillions from us and left us to fight civil wars after they left us to hate each other and turn tribes against each other. If there’s oil there….america will enter there and no one will hear about it
So the uncontacted tribes have radios and communicate with the people that have not contacted them.
Natives must not know how to use radios hahaha.
Instead of some countries to the North complain about deforestation which is at a minimum to what they’re doing in their own forests they should lend a hand to stop these poachers they can they got the technologies
It is the Indians that should utilize their resources. Who else in the world has their lands protected by Federal law, a pure apartheid, lucky for them?
poachers from venezuela are here because they don t have how to survive in their country!comunists are destrying the world
Christ we need to stop this BS carry on globally.. Time to start shooting people…. there’s no other way…
Why not just shoot the bastages. Tough cookies if that’s you.
Shout out to all the indigenous people
150 last week only one person 🤕🤕🤕
Solve every problem from the ground root level. Finish those drug cartels and poaching will automatically go down. Somebody has to clean up the trash. It will never happen on its own.
😆 Easy, huh?
We got a lot of people… Killing this intruders and smugglers will help the world and make better world
Let’s make it very clear that the Amazon belongs to Brazil, and that these indigenous people are Brazilians. This problem belongs to Brazil, and only Brazil can solve it. Any foreign interference will cost the meddler dearly.
what’s your solution for it then, dumbass
They are not Brazilians
@@alexanderfate8447 The solution is not your problem, stupid.
@@user-yj4qz5lo6k They are.
@Josh Traffanstedt this is not the 1800s anymore, you are a dumbass too. and if i met you in real life, it wouldn’t be pretty so u better hope u don’t.
Protect these tribes
Poachers and illegal fishermen should be shot on sight. No questions asked.
Bravo!
Why don’t they tag the fish they catch? Give them a few tags so no one would over fish a specific specie and if someone does, he would be penalized. Oh yes, it’s not like this is happening in US waters and knowing Brazil govt. Is crooked? It’s no wonder the fishery is a disaster.
Those poachers should stop whatever they doing
respect
Those Chinese have reached every where, there are doing illegal mining
Protect your culture and those people living there in peace. Don’t let outsiders destroy its beauty. Salute to all of you guardians. Watching from Cebu, Philippines.
outsider? which one? the portugese govt in Brazil or the poacher?
@@arep7771 there’s no portuguese government in brazil, brazil has over 2 centuries of independence, LMAO
They need more diversity bro. It is kind of prejudiced and bigoted to be so xenophobic.
I don’t see too many white men there.
Yep
Exploiters need to be dealt with extrajudicially. These people are just trying to survive, not exploit. They have no time, interest or understanding of “courts”. Putting prices on these species is perverse, and should be met with bounties on exploiters.
Take Them Out! They know they shouldn’t be there. Humans are some disrespectful mutha’s!! Bless You All for Protecting💗
EU ACABEI DE ENTREGAR TEU NOME E IP PARA AS FORCAS ARMADAS DO BRASIL AGORA. VOCE ESTA SENDO RASTREADO AGORA PELO GOVERNO DO BRASIL AGORA.
A good drastic measure to take is sinking smuggler boats and interrogation.
Corrupt government officials allow poachers to abuse the environment.
Good ideas to frotek man and mother’s nature . good jub
Looks like Anaconda part 2
150 arapaimas a week!?!? Fken insane! I want one!
but the country itself is too big though so its kinda hard to monitor the whole rainforest. n we talking about south america smuggler n poacher here. just like their drug related issue, the organization that did it are too well-equipped n armed so i dont think they would tackle the issue that easy.
The Earth belongs to everyone not just one or two tribes!!!
Vigilância indígena?? Isso não é milícia? Alô FUNAI, bandidos armados travestidos de índio, isso pode?? O Brazil é mesmo uma comédia!
Deixa os Indios. Empaz. Se eles estao isolados pra quer ir la pertubar eles Jesus
Capitalist goons
Capture those poachers and illegal fishermen tie them up and feed them to the fish. They will not enter your preserve again.
None of the poachers look to be white.
It’s just a way to blame white people for the past. Im brazilian and I’d say 80% of our population is extremely mixed, the rest is either mainly african or mainly Italian, German who moved here in the 1900s. Also why are they so mad… the Indians need diversity to enrich their culture
@@HeadhuntexGamerno they don’t
I dont see any un contacted tribes 🤭🤭
All poachers -shoot on site
humans are the cancer of this planet.
the rich and big corporations are killing everything and destroying the planet because of their greed and status
Imagine telling these guys that they will own nothing and they will be happy. 😵
Dont contact them means no viruses and plague
South America belong to the natives!
Many nation in south america are native like Bolivia
ALL the Indigenous people of Brazil must form a coalition with the purpose to protect your land, resources and your culture. Prosecute ALL poachers, smugglers and criminals from exploiting and stealing your livelihood and destroying the environment. You the INDIGENOUS people of Brazil are the TRUE and RIGHTFUL GUARDIANS of the land. You were here long before any white man and government. PROTECT WHAT IS YOUR LIFE SOURCE BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE CAN OR WILL.🙏
Nah, they need diversity. Why would they want to stay closed? Are they fa right or what
@@HeadhuntexGamerYour comment is probably one of the most ignorant comments I’ve ever seen
I didn’t see any white people. What I do know is that entire area is run by drug cartels
I wonder why the indigenous peoples kill.
Woow white men … so oil rigs are owend by white people
This is the perfect amount of connection with the outside world, not too many people to spread diseases but just enough to give them what they need
Protect yourself and don’t absolutely not let anyone on your land or water native people around the world have been prosecuted for no reason other than others greedyness especially British so called colonization don’t fail for it they will use your neighborhood native people against each other and then that evil queen owns the rights to the land
Love Brazilian people and BJJ
I hope the WHITE MAN leaves the Amazon !
2:12 dead monkey? what happened?
0:57 This guy alllegely killed Dom Phillips, a british journalist and Bruno Pereira, a very experienced indigenist expert 4 months laters.
Bruno was present in one of the boats used during the recording of this footage. He was probably the most important indigenist for the Javari area in the whole world, having worked for years with recently contacted and uncontacted tribes of the region, which is home for the biggest number of isolated tribes in the world. He even spoke some of the languages only spoken in the area.
A sad day for Brasil and for all the native people worldwide. This event is the epitome of an ongoing politic by federal government in order to enrich the same few people who control agricultural and mining business, escalating violence in the area to levels reminiscent of colonization.
He did actually,not allegely
What was the motive?
@@minoadlawan4583They made a famous peruvian drug dealer mad by transitioning on a drug traffic area.
These people need to be protected from the missionaries!
These are the Real Brazilians ,Not that halfbreed President who don’t want to concede.
Awesome ❤❤❤
There are no boarders from space. That’s just a human construct. Stupid ideology like that is why there is war.
Can’t change stupid
2:13 this one guy just took a money lol
All those resources lol no wonder Brazil is so pathetic and poor.
Seems like al Jazeera wants to spread their peaceful religion and spread the virus of jihad amongst these tribes. Sorry but pisslam won’t survive here.
No! You don’t go on others’ land to poach their livelihood. If a person were merely passing through he’d now have to get permission from whoever is the head man or woman, and would need an escort/body guard to avoid being murdered by someone who knew no better. I think common courtesy is pretty much universal, but so is a sense of justice.
