Living with the Kumbai Premiere

I was watching the Premiere episode of the "Living with the Kumabai Tribe" in Travel Channel. I would say it was really good. You could actually compare how difficult living in the jungle and living in the cities. There are a lot of things that they don't have over in the jungle. They were hunting different kinds of animals just to survive, like rats, snakes, monkeys and many others. Well anyways, The Kumabai are among the world's last hunter-gatherers. They live in isolation from the rest of the globe, in precarious treehouses dotted throughout the jungle of West Papua. Their only tools are stone axes, they also have arrows. Their only clothes are grass skirts and bizarre penis gourds. They said that their are not too many Kumbai's left.
