Stephen Corry, the director of the group - which supports tribal people around the world - said such tribes would "soon be made extinct" if their land was not protected.
He makes it sound as these primitive tribes are animals. I just don't know why certain people feel it is necessary to keep "uncivilized" tribes in their current state? Shouldn't it be their choice as to whether they live with such hardship or not?
