Into The Wild - Top Cases Of Feral Kids Being Raised By Animals

The Indian Wolf Boy

Dina Sanichar was 6 years old when he was found inside a cave of wolves deep in the jungles of Bulandshahr, India, back in 1867. He was spotted walking on all fours following one of the wolves.

The hunters who found him shot the wolf and the kid was taken to the nearest town. It took him quite a while to lose his wild habits, such as tearing off clothes and eating raw food from the ground. But while he eventually learned how to cook, he never managed to learn how to speak.

The Syrian Gazelle Boy

Can you believe that a boy born in Syria spent 10 years living with a herd of gazelles? After a decade in the wild, he was discovered in 1946 by an Iraqi army jeep.

He was extremely thin yet at the same time rather muscular and fit for a boy his age. He was eventually sent to a state institution, yet nobody knows what happened then.

The Romanian Dog Boy

Traian Caldarar was nearly four years old when he was separated from his parents. Allegedly he escaped from his house and ventured into the wild, and was thenceforth raised by a pack of dogs for three whole years.

He was seven years old by the time he was found by a local shepherd in the Transylvanian countryside, though he had the size of a three-year-old. Logically, he didn't speak a word, and doctors couldn't understand how he had managed to survive all along.
