Measured by volume the Amazon River is the largest river in the world. Thousands of families live along the banks of this great river and its tributaries.* These riparian people, or riverine people serve as watchmen over access to the rainforest. They live in remote regions where few travel. Their very presence and connection with law enforcement and the outside world serve as a major deterrent to poachers of various sorts and other illegal exploiters of the Amazon and its riches.
Their main source of living is fishing, family farming, sustainable extractivism and often craftwork. Their lives are intrinsically connected to nature. These people have a very strong bond with the river commonly used for drinking water, cooking, washing clothes and bathing. Also, small boats traversing the river waterways in Amazonia is the only means of transportation riverine families have. They are known as the ‘Guardians of the Amazon.’ READ MORE:
