Witoto people
The Witoto people (also Huitoto) are an indigenous people in southeastern Colombia and northern Peru.〔("Witoto." ) ''Encyclopedia Britannica.'' Retrieved 6 Dec 2011.〕
==History==
The Witoto people were once composed of one hundred villages or 31 tribes, but disease and conflict has reduced their numbers. Until the early 20th century, Witoto population was 50,000. The rubber boom in the mid-20th century brought diseases and displacement to the Witotos, causing their numbers to plummet to 7,000–10,000.〔
Since the 1990s, cattle ranchers have invaded Witoto lands—depleting the soil and polluting waterways. In response, Colombia has established several reservations for Witotos.〔
