The mother and her three children spent 34 days walking in the jungle thickets until they encountered members of the Sequoia native tribe, near the Jubito village. The tribe updated Peru's fleet, which passed the information on to its colleagues in Colombia. The Colombian Navy sent a craft to transport the family 180 miles down the river. In the documentation broadcast on Caracol Channel, the frail and dehydrated children were seen being brought into the vessel and reunited with their father, who was waiting for them at the Puerto Maritime naval base.

"If we hadn't been drinking every half hour, we would have passed out," the mother said. "We had to stop all the time and the girls couldn't walk anymore."

General Sergio Alfredo Sereno of the Colombian Navy said the four family members were covered in bites and bites, and cuts in their feet. Doctors at the hospital will check if they are infected with mosquito-borne illnesses, such as malaria.
