North Sentinel Island is the only uncontacted island on all of planet Earth and is roughly inhabited by 15-500 residents.
However, taking an accurate measurement is almost impossible as its inhabitants are extremely hostile to anyone that visits the island. There are also tigers seen on the island.

The only friendly meeting with the tribe so far was in 1975 whom they took lots foods from.
"The savages were perfectly naked, with short air and red painted noses, and were opening their mouth and making sounds like pa on tough; their arrows appeared to be tipped with iron." They were 165m short with muscular builds as hunters.

The island is located in the Bay of Bengal between India and Thailand.
The island measures 6km wide and 8 km long
