Yasuni Biosphere Reserve<br />
The privileged location of the Yasuni between: the<br />
Andes, the Western Amazon Basin and the Equator<br />
make the Ecuador’s most interesting wilderness for<br />
Mankind: the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve; home of the<br />
extraordinary biodiversity and a recently contacted<br />
Amazonian indigenous group known as the Huaorani;<br />
relatives of the Waoranis, the Tagaeri and Taromenane,<br />
still live in voluntary isolation deep in the reserve.<br />
The Yasuní Biosphere Reserve also sits atop large reserves<br />
of crude oil, Ecuador’s chief export, and contains<br />
an abundance of valuable timber species. This<br />
volatile combination has led to intense conflicts, and<br />
subsequently, increased international interest and concern.<br />
In 1989, the area in and around the original limits of<br />
Yasuni National Park was designated as a Man and<br />
the Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO (United Nations<br />
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).<br />
The Yasuni Biosphere Reserve. Now covers 16 820<br />
km2, including a 5000 km2 core area. According to<br />
UNESCO documents, this core area is centered on the<br />
Yasuni and Nushiño Rivers in the northeast section of<br />
the park. The rest of the reserve (a 7000 km2 buffer<br />
zone and a 4820 km2 transition zone) includes much<br />
of the remaining park area and the adjacent Waorani<br />
Ethnic Reserve.<br />
The Yasuni Biosphere Reserve is the core of a small,<br />
unique area where South America’s plant, amphibian,<br />
bird, and mammal species richness centers overlap.<br />
Furthermore, the reserve is located within the<br />
‘Core Amazon’, an especially wet region to maintain<br />
wet, rainforest conditions as climate change-induced<br />
drought intensifies in the Eastern Amazon. Haffer<br />
(1969, 1997) postulated that the area in and around<br />
the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve was one of several<br />
Amazonian forest refugia during dry climatic periods<br />
over the past 65 million years, but this hypothesis has<br />
now largely been rejected (Mayle et al 2004, Maslin<br />
et al 2005).<br />
The Waorani People<br />
The Waorani are Amerindians from the Amazonian<br />
Region of Ecuador (Napo, Orellana and Pastaza Provinces)<br />
who have marked differences from other ethnic<br />
groups from Ecuador. The entire Yasuni Biosphere<br />
Reserve region is ancestral Waorani territory, which
extends from the Napo River on the north<br />
and west, down to the Curaray River in the south<br />
and eastward into Peru. This vast territory, which<br />
stretches over 20 000 km2, underlies the current limits<br />
of Yasuni National Park and the Waorani Ethnic<br />
Reserve<br />
Information on Waorani history and distribution<br />
prior to the twentieth century is scarce and speculative<br />
The Waorani were traditionally a highly mobile,<br />
semi-nomadic population of hunter-gatherer horticulturalists.<br />
They lived in four warring and widely<br />
dispersed groups located on hilltops away from major<br />
rivers; the headwaters of the Tiputini River constituted<br />
the core of ancestral Waorani territory. Other<br />
indigenous groups, mainly the Zaparos, lived along<br />
the Tiputini and Curaray rivers in essence surrounding<br />
the Waorani. When the Zaparos were suddenly<br />
decimated by disease and violent displacement during<br />
the rubber boom that hit the region in the late<br />
1800s, the Waorani were able to expand their territory<br />
northward to the Napo and southward to the<br />
Upper Curaray and Villano rivers. Waorani territory<br />
likely reached its greatest extent at the beginning of<br />
20th century<br />
.<br />
At least two lines of evidence suggest that the Waorani<br />
were quite isolated, even from other indigenous<br />
groups in the area, for a long time:<br />
1. - Their language, Wao Terero, is an isolated one<br />
without known congeners and with only two known<br />
cognates at the time of missionary contact in the late<br />
1950s Wao Terero is considered unique in linguistic<br />
construction, with no known similarities with Zaparoan<br />
phonology or structure.<br />
2. - The genetic homogeneity of The Waorani also<br />
points to a lengthy isolation of their population.<br />
During modern history, there were four major periods<br />
of early contact between the Waorani —which<br />
translates to ‘the people’ or ‘true human beings’ in<br />
Wao Terero— and outsiders encroaching on their territory:<br />
1. - The rubber boom in the late 1800s/early 1900s,<br />
2. - Early oil exploration in the 1940s,<br />
3. - Missionary work starting in the 1950s, and<br />
4. - The oil boom starting in the 1970s.

We would like to thanks to all the collaborators who spend their time in the forest, assisting us in<br />
the identification of many of the species. Rudy Gelis, Mike Tidwell, Holger Licuy, Jose Illanes, Oscar<br />
Tapuy, Nick Athanas, Mitch Lysinger and others; without their effort and keenness this list wouldn’t be<br />
possible.
