Children Beast: 5 amazing cases of childrens raised by animals

in #kids7 years ago

Many believe that stories with animals raised by animals exist only in movies. Indeed, such cases are rare, but they are as real as possible. Over the course of history, there have been over 100 documented cases of animal-borne children in the wild, without contact with humans.
Because of the isolation of civilization and the need to survive, these children have adopted the traits of the animals that have taken care of them. In this article we present the extraordinary stories of such people. Although they are shocking, they show us that the survival instinct overcomes any obstacle.

  1. Marina Chapman, the raised face of monkeys.
    A famous case of animals raised by animals is that of Navy Chapman. The girl was born in 1950 in Colombia, and when she was only four years old she was kidnapped from the village where she lived. It is not known why, soon the kidnappers changed their minds and abandoned it in the middle of the jungle.

A child of only four years, abandoned in the wild, would not have much chance of survival. But the story of the Navy has shown us that it is possible. Scared, the little girl became acquainted with a group of capuchin monkeys who adopted it.
Slowly, Marina learned to do it. It started by observing the behavior of the monkeys. So he realized that if he was under the trees where the animals ate, he could collect the food they escaped. The little girl slept in the tree and learned to walk in four feet, just like the monkeys.

That's how Marina spent five years in the middle of the jungle until it was discovered by some hunters. When it was found, she had totally lost her ability to speak. Unfortunately, the encounter with hunters was not a good sign for Marina.

To make money, they sold it to a brothel in Cucuta, where it managed to escape. For a while, he slept on the streets, becoming the slave of a mafia family. After a few years, she was rescued by a neighbor and moved to the UK, where she now lives.

Later, Marina (who married a Braford scientist) published her memoirs under the title "Unnamed Girl". In her book she tells a story that tells us what a strong connection she had with the animals that grew up.

At some point, Marina tells, he got sick very badly because he ate a poisonous plant. Sensing that the girl might die, one of the monkeys (whom Marina now calls her "grandfather") led her to a pond of dirty water. The little girl drank from that water, vomited, and then began to feel better.
