The group lives in a jungle area near the border of Peru in the Amazonian state of Acre in northwestern Brazil.Brazil's National Indigenous Foundation (Funai) said it has been monitoring the group since 2008, but direct contact was not made until June. Researchers from Funai, the Front for Ethno-Environmental Protection and members of neighbouring tribes say they are working to contain the group and protect their integrity and environment.
