Monitoring post created by the Ka'apor for their independent monitoring system. Between 2013 and 2015, the Ka'apor created 8 monitoring posts in Alto Turiacu indigenous land to control illegal loggers invasion. The Alto Turiacu indigenous land, from the Ka’apor people, spreads around 530 thousand hectares and is one of the last areas of Amazon forest in Maranhão state. In the last 25 years, that land has been continuously trespassed by illegal loggers – a threat not only to the forest itself, but to the Indians, victims of life threats, attempts and murders. Tired of waiting for the Brazilian government to take action even after several reports, the Ka’apor people developed an independent project to monitor and cast out trespassers.
