How does the tribal live?What do they depend on for food, clothes, building material etc?

Most tribals live in settled villages by the rivers, and grow vegetables and fruits like manioc, corn, beans and bananas.

              They also hunt and fish, using plant-based poisons to stun the fish. Some tribes use shotguns for hunting, others use bows and arrows, spears, or blowguns.

               Only a few tribes are nomadic; they tend to live deep in the forest away from the rivers. They grow some crops but depend more on hunting and gathering.
