Covid spreads by air droplets. It may spread to them. From towns in the Amazon region to contacted tribes and from them to uncontacted ones. That would be a disaster

Exactly, people should stop talking about them as if they are ignorant! No, they are not worshipping us and our planes as gods! They know we are other people, who can also be hostile. Uncontacted tribes are uncontacted only directly by non-tribal societies, but they ARE contacted by other tribes, which in turn have contact with non-tribal inhabitants of the region

Well I am so introverted, that it actually sounds like a good life to me 😆

Maybe the descendants.of the tribe will survive the death of our civilizations, and their language, albeit changed with time, will be the one which spreads after that across the world

@semiramisbonaparte1627 they are healthier cause the unhealthy ones die in the first 5 years of their lives. The mortality of kids younger than 5 was insanely high before modern vaccines and antibiotics, and is still very high in those developing nations, which have little access to modern medicine, and yeah, among "contacted" hunter-gatherers too, so I bet uncontacted ones have the same problem.

I don't know, my Slavic ancestor lived in a forest 😆

That would be easier than to explain many other things. One Russian explorer in the 19th century for a time lived among Papuan people on New Guinea, and they didn't understand when he tried to tell them where he is from, so he told them he was from the Moon, and they just accepted that explanation

And not only he has 42 miles^2, but there are probably more species in his piece of land than in most independent countries in the world! And most of them are endemic. Dude literally owns hundreds of species 😎😆

Very unlikely that civilizations would develop close enough to each other in the galaxy to visit each other, and in the similar time period. Considering that you cannot travel faster than light speed

"Larger than Indian subcontinent but with population of only 20 million" Cute. Republic of Sakha/Yakutia is around the same size as India, but has less than a million people living there. Maybe it is because it is where the "pole of cold" of the Northern hemisphere is located 😆

Yeah, and I own nothing, and my parents only 56 m^2 apartment plus similar size summer house (very bad one as well) and 700 m^2 garden around it. This is called progress??? Gibe us 42 miles^2!!!

99.9% of species are extinct too. So...
