This video, by Amazon Region Protected Areas (ARPA) Program features an indian boy using the Samauma tree to make a call for the Amazon preservation.
Comments: In the Amazon, the Samauma tree (Ceiba pentandra) is distinguished for its majestic size - growing up to 30 meters tall and 6 meters wide. Legend has it that the Samauma is the home of Curupira, a boy-like supernatural being which protects the forest and the life it supports. The indigenous peoples (and the Curupira himself) use the Samauma tree's immense roots - the sapopemasto communicate, drumming on it messages that are propagated throughout the woods...
I stood next to the Samauma and know its sounds. It is a power that should never be destroyed!
