Summary paragraph: The passage discusses the existence of uncontacted peoples, tribes or groups of people who live separately from modern society and have preserved ancient traditions and ways of life.Protecting these endangered groups has become increasingly challenging, but efforts are being made by countries and organizations to raise awareness and safeguard their existence.Governments and citizens need to increase their efforts to protect these tribes, not only by making it illegal to approach them but also by addressing the underlying causes of their vulnerability, such as land encroachment and industrial development.While it is difficult to determine the exact number of uncontacted peoples, experts estimate that there are around 100 tribes worldwide.These tribes typically live deep in forests or on remote islands, far from cities or towns.The rapid growth of industries in their countries has resulted in the loss of their lands and forced contact with the outside world.This tragic incident highlights the risks involved in any contact with isolated tribes.
