The Huaorani tribe has evolved flat feet after decades of feeding on monkeys and climbing trees. This is how to live their lives in the jungle of Ecuador.

The Huaorani tribe has a population of only 4,000 members and lives a modest life in the rainforests of eastern Ecuador. They live off the land, firing blowpipes to kill monkeys, which they then skin and roast over open fires as their meals. the Huaorani tribe also eat peccary pigs and toucans as well as plants and herbs which they have scavenged in the forests.

 The Huaorani tribe's lifestyle has led to their feet evolving most of the residents have very flat feet, which aids them to climb the trees. The Ecuadorean government, in 1990 set up the Waorani Ethnic Reserve to protect the forest they live in.

There are no restaurants or grocery stores or malls in the rainforests of eastern Ecuador. If the Huaorani people want to eat, they go out with a blowpipe and fire on a monkey. The Huaorani tribe are experts at shinning up trees and lying in wait for the primates, which they slay with poisoned darts fired from blowpipes, reported, Metro.

There are less than 4,000 people in the Huaorani tribe and the small gene group, alongside the endless tree climbing has led the people to develop very flat feet, many of which have six toes and six fingers. For the Huaorani tribe, monkey meat is a staple of their diet, along with peccary pigs. The Huaorani tribe live near the Rio Napo, which eventually flows into the mighty Amazon in neighboring Peru.

The Huaorani tribe, who are sometimes referred to as Waorani or Wales, are a native Amerindian tribe whose language has no relation to any other tongue, not even Quechua, which is widely used in Ecuador. Similar to most South American tribes, the Huaorani are in the custom of elongating their earlobes and then wearing ear-rings made of bone or wood, says, Daily Mail.
