THE MOMENT AN AMAZONIAN TRIBE MEET THE OUTSIDE WORLD FOR THE FIRST TIME!


First contact: The moment natives from Amazonian tribe who were driven out of the jungle by logging and drug traffickers meet the outside world

  • Young men thought to be part of 50-strong group along Brazil's Envira River
  • They were 'driven away after homes were set alight and they were shot at'
  • Natives spoke of vultures eating bodies of relatives they were unable to bury
  • Some then contracted the flu and had to be treated by government medics
  • It is believed cocaine-growing gangs on Brazil-Peru border are responsible
  • People are also being pushed out by oil and gas mining and illegal logging 
  • Campaigner: 'The latest situation is really serious and deeply worrying'
