With a population numbering approximately 2,400, the Huaorani maintain a largely traditional lifestyle living directly in and from the rainforest. The local Yasuní National Park, which covers an immense 982,000 hectares of Amazon rainforest, 95% of which is untouched has been declared a UNESCO biosphere reserve and is one of the areas of greatest genetic diversity on the planet.
