In this March 17, 2015 photo, illegally cut logs lay on the bank of the Putaya River between the Ashaninka Indian communities of Saweto and Puerto Putaya, Peru. Illegal logging persists unabated in this remote Amazon community where four indigenous leaders who resisted it were slain in September. Illegal loggers drag their cut trees from the jungle to the river's edge, to later move them down river to the city of Pucallpa, about a two day trip, to sell on the black market.
