Teddy Roosevelt also explored the Amazon. For his activities, which he thought many of the species were about to be exterminated, he was outfitted with a special gun order from Winchester arms company ("the gun that won the west"). Its said many of the specimens he shot went to the Museum of Natural History in NYC. His grand-daughter, Anna Roosevelt, of the Chicago Field Museum, is an archaeologist and has done research on the mound builders on Marajo ("largest littoral island in the world" - Wikipedia) in the Amazon River in the "E.U. do Brasil", which she was assisted once by a public archaeology company I worked for.
