The Fore Tribe Cannibalisim Wikia Fandom Kuru was a rare, incurable, and fatal neurodegenerative disorder that was formerly common among the fore people of papua new guinea. it is a prion disease which leads to tremors and loss of coordination from neurodegeneration. the term kúru means "trembling" and comes from the fore word kuria or guria ("to shake"). 23 it is also known as "laughing sickness" due to abnormal bursts of laughter. Among a tribe of about 11,000 people called the fore, up to 200 people a year had been dying of an inexplicable illness. they called the disease kuru, which means "shivering" or "trembling.".

The almost total absence of kuru cases in south fore among children born after 1954 and the rising of age of kuru cases year by year suggested that transmission of kuru to children stopped in the 1950s [90, 91, 92] when cannibalism ceased to be practiced among the fore people. In one of the world’s least explored regions, the fore had lived independently for years, developing a distinctive culture with traditions unknown even to their fellow islanders. one of these traditions was ritual cannibalism, which led to a widespread disease called kuru.
