The Jarawa Are Doing Well

The jarawa were once one of the great andamones a group of 10 tribes who numbered 5,000 in 1858 when the british first welcomed them into the empire today there are only 52. The last member of the bow tribe who were believed to have lived in the anaman islands for over 65,000 years died in 2010 We don't know how many sentinoles remain low estimates say barely more than a dozen But their island is so dense and so little is known about its interior that as many as four or five hundred people may still remain.
