  • Indigenous rights NGO Survival International has released rare pictures of the Mashco Piro tribes’ people, one of the world’s 100-odd uncontacted tribes.
  • The Mashco Piro, possibly numbering more than 750, are believed to be the largest of such tribes.
  • These nomadic hunter-gatherers live in the Amazon jungles of the Madre de Dios Region, close to Peru’s border with Brazil and Bolivia.
  • The tribe is very reclusive, only occasionally contacting the native but contacted Yine people.
  • Much of what is known about the Mashco Piro comes from Yine accounts.
