International human rights group Survival International has today released another sensational batch of images, capturing the lifestyle of a remote group of people on Australian shores.

They’ve released pictures and footage of Devonport tribespeople engaging in their remote and relatively uncaptured lifestyle.

This follows Survival International capturing incredible images of the Mashco Piro, another uncontacted Indigenous tribe in the remote Peruvian Amazon.

The photographs show people on the banks of a river close to where logging companies have concessions, who have reportedly had their lifestyle threatened by those companies.

Off the back of that photo drop, they’ve now wowed the world with footage of the rarely seen before remote Devonportians.

In one of the images, a Devonport man and what appears to be his partner can be seen to be throwing a beer bottle at the drone flying over head.

Other images show Devonport tribespeople lighting things on fire and old cars that have assumably been commandeered from neighbouring towns in rare exchanges of goods.

Survival International said they weren’t expecting to receive such a hostile welcome from the northern Tasmanian outpost, and will leave them in peace for the next little while.

More to come.
