The Yaruro are Native Americans who live primarily in Venezuela near the Orinoco River and its tributaries. Current population estimates are generally between 3,000 and 4,000. They live by hunting, fishing, agriculture, paid labor of various types, and the selling of handicrafts. They have a distinct language and religion, though some have converted to Christianity.
