The fire already lasts two months and is the largest ever recorded in indigenous lands in Brazil. About 45% of 413,000 hectares of land have been destroyed. The lack of an effective policy to protect indigenous lands in Brazil allows illegal logging and increases the risk that fires like these can happen in other lands, since the degradation caused by illegal logging makes the forests vulnerable to fire.In original language:Incêndio florestal na Terra Indígena ArariboiaCasa queimada pelo incêndio florestal na Terra Indigena Arariboia, o maior já registrado em terras indígenas no Brasil. Cerca de 45% dos 413 mil hectares do território foram destruídos. A falta de uma política eficaz de proteção das terras indígenas permite o roubo de madeira e aumenta o risco de que incêndios como esses possam se repetir em outras terras, já que a degradação causada pela atividade madeireira ilegal torna a floresta vulnerável ao fogo. 25 de outubro de 2015.
