rainforest tribes
Amazon indigenous communities
Indigenous peoples who live in tropical rainforest regions, particularly in the Amazon, Central Africa, and Southeast Asia.
Many maintain traditional ways of life—hunting, gathering, and small-scale farming—that have adapted to the forest environment over thousands of years.
The term appears in discussions of conservation, land rights, and cultural preservation: Rainforest tribes face threats from logging and mining operations.
