These tribes of dozens of individuals are not what prevents logging for happening. The mission will use boats and an helicopter on a long trip just to reach the place. What would be the economic viability to estabilish a commercial operation there?
The indigenous people that prevents some of the logging in some places are much larger ones with total contact with the rest of society for centuries that live in much more accessible areas

Everyone is in the accessible areas, not as many in the harder to reach places that makes it extremely economically viable for them to set up shop there. Like I said it's a cynical interpretation and I hope I'm wrong, but this is literally history repeating itself.
