Feral Girl

I dunno if this story has hit the Indian media but I just read this exciting report coming out of Ukraine. Oxana Malaya is our modern day version of Mowgli. The girl was abandoned by her alcoholic parents and was taken care of by feral dogs? She lived in a kennel and acquired the behavior and mannerisms of her canine guardians. Till the age of eight, when she was found by humans, she growled, barked and crouched like a wild dog, sniffing her food before eating it. Amazingly, she was found to have acquired extremely acute senses of hearing, smell and sight.
