‘Altay Mowgli’: Feral man spent entire life in mud hut in Siberian forest...

A feral man who says that he has never left the woods has been found near a small settlement in Siberia. The 20 year-old was brought up by hermit parents, who then reportedly abandoned him.

“He has got no education, doesn’t have any social skills and has no conception of the world outside of the woods,” said Roman Fomin, a prosecutor in the town of Belokuriha in the Altay region.

The man said that his parents told him that he was born in 1993, and took him to the woods when he was four.

In May of this year, the couple, whose names have not been published in the media, reportedly abandoned him. Police say they are searching for the adults, who were reported by locals to have departed for the island of Sakhalin, off Russia’s Pacific Coast.

 A local woman discovered the feral man living in a hut in the ground, 3 kilometers from the nearest human settlement, and escorted him to the police department. Full story...
