Raimundo Nonato de Oliveira is Chief Puraka. The name, of Tupi origin, comes from an electric fish strong enough to kill a horse. Despite his name, Puraka is a calm and slow-spoken man. Leader of one of the 28 villages in the Caititu Indigenous Land, in Lábrea, the south of Amazonas state, he and his people value what is necessary and cannot imagine living anywhere else. “We feel good when we’re like this. We feel good when we’re in nature.”
