Geralda/Toco Preto

Tierra Indígena · Brazil · 5°01′S 45°42′W

What this is

Geralda/Toco Preto is an Indigenous territory in Brazil, home to the Guajajara, covering about 186 km², recognised in 1994. RAISG records 969 inhabitants. Indigenous-held forest is among the best-conserved in the basin; detections inside it are a measure of pressure on the people who keep it standing.

Detections centred inside · as of 2026-09-12

  • Illegal-mining scars: 0 — Amazon Mining Watch, cumulative since 2018
  • Deforestation alerts (DETER, 12 months to 2026-09-05): 0 — drawn from the 6,000 largest alerts in the Legal Amazon, so small clearings are not included
  • Active fires are a 48-hour feed and change daily — see them live on the dashboard below

A detection counts here when its centre point falls inside the boundary at the time of the monthly bake; extents are the detections' own areas and can straddle the edge. A detection is a satellite-seen change, not a verdict on legality.
