Amazon Jungle

Deep in the forest north of the Amazon, the Mapuera and Cachorro rivers meet the Trombetas at the rapids of Cachoeira Porteira. These waterways join forest communities across the basin, though the rocky falls interrupt a journey by canoe. Farther up the Mapuera live Wai Wai peoples, while the Cachorro winds through the country of the Kaxuyana and Tunayana.
