This text explores social relationships between humans and non humans among the Makuna, an Eastern Tukanoan group from Northwest Amazon. From the local concept üsi wasoare (loan of vitality) I analyze shamanic exchanges related to the group productive practices, and demonstrate how life generation results from human labor, guided by an ethical principle that prevents the destruction of non humans.

Palavras-chave : Makuna; Northwest Amazon; Shamanism; Ecological management.
