Amazonian fish migration as a social–cultural–ecological process

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 3297-3312, December 2025.
Abstract In this study, we highlight the rich perspectives and explanations of fish migration held by Indigenous groups across the Amazon. We present the aspects of Indigenous cosmological stories, drawing from our exploratory review of cultural ethnographies and grey literature, as well as the authors' own experiences. We ask, how do Amazonian peoples
