    Footage of yet another isolated South American tribe has emerged. Last week we brought you rare footage of the isolated Kawahiva Tribe from Brazil.

    This week, a tribe living near Peru is making a second attempt at contacting the outside world. The Mashco-Piro tribe were caught on video trying to cross a river, and venture beyond the border of their isolated community in Manu Nationl Park.

    In 2011,  they were seen on the bank of a different river after living in isolation for over 20 years.

    Saul Puerta Pena, director for the Interethnic Association for the Development of the Peruvian Rainforest (AIDESEP), says:

    The tribe cannot come into contact with the remote community still because any illness could kill them

    Anthropologist Beatriz Huertas, works with Peru’s agency for indigenous affairs and acknowledges that the Mashco-Piro are becoming less isolated.

    Saul Puerta says:

    Now the government doesn’t have an argument to tell us that our indigenous brothers don’t exist

    Adding that the government maintains indigenous people choosing to live isolated lives don’t exist.

    They look pretty existent to us.
