Description
Summary:	Many years before the arrival of the Negro Bantus around the year 1000 BC, in the deepest of the equatorial jungles, the first dwellers of the African continent live: the Pygmies.

Today, around 5, 000 Pygmies still live like thousand of years ago, and their world is at risk due to the indiscriminate logging.
