View through CrossRef
This chapter explains the adventure of chasing amphibians and reptiles leading to being immersed in a wonderland of unfamiliar culture. It mentions that the local director of FUNAI (National Indian Foundation of Brazil) asked about a survey to see if reptiles and amphibians had declined in the area. The days of exploring and collecting around Boa Vista presented an opportunity to travel deep into a Yanomami reserve. The chapter then notes the Yanomamis' knowledge about the local reptiles and amphibians to help with the research. It highlights the Yanomamis' fight against entering a complex modern world to keep the lands which their ancestors adapted.
