Life Untouched!

Yeah, it's been a while. So what is bringing this blog from the depths of extinction? How about a little more free time and a really interesting find... The Brazilian Department of Indian Affairs flew over one of the last untouched tribes in the Amazon. They've posted pictures of the tribe as proof to the world that the rainforest should be left alone. You really should take a look at all of the pictures. They are fascinating. Apparently, the plane photographing the tribe made a few passes. After the first pass the tribe went into attack mode by hiding the women and children and painting their bodies. In a few of the pictures you can seen the men pointing their weapons at the camera. The question now is how did that fly over affect the tribe? Imagine seeing a plane for the first time! My bet is they are already on the move to set up shop somewhere else. Maybe they are making as song about the plane or saying that it was an answer to one of their disputes? Amazing!
