Reminds me of a recording trip in Amapa, Brasil.
We were on a forest trail not far from a small
village, recording antbirds. A child of age 9 or 
10 walked past carrying a shotgun that was seemed
twice as long as he was tall. A few minutes later, 
macaws started calling, and we heard the shotgun 
discharge.  The boy returned carrying lunch for 
his family.  We saw no more macaws that day.
