As a result of these and other threats, the indigenous communities are facing physical and cultural extermination, physical because their natural grounds for their hunting and gathering and foodstuffs are essentially being eliminated and cultural because they're being displaced to areas that are foreign to them and to their normal lands; as such, they are facing either assimilation or cultural destruction.
Ces menaces et d'autres mettent les communautés autochtones à risque d'extermination physique et culturelle : physique car on leur enlève les terres qu'elles utilisent pour chasser et se nourrir, et culturelle car on les oblige à s'installer dans des régions qu'elles ne connaissent pas, les exposant à l'assimilation ou à la destruction culturelle.
