Siberian Mowgli Emerges After 16 Years In Forest
I have seen quite a few cases such as this one recently. It is very unfortunate that the parents decided to abandon him like that, they have a moral obligation towards their child. Sad.
An unnamed man thought to be in his 20s emerged from the Siberian wilderness after reportedly living there for the past 16 years.
The man was found by a local woman living in a hut in the ground near the town of Belokurikha, a famous resort area in Russia's Altai region in south Siberia.
The man told authorities -- in delayed but clear speech -- that he was born in 1993 and had lived in the forest since 1997 when his parents decided to leave society. He explained that they left him alone in the hut in May and haven't returned since.
