Kids Who Were Raised By Animals

Lyokha, raised by Russian Wolves

In 2007, when the villagers reported that they found a boy in Kaluga region of Central Russia outside a den made of leaves and twigs in the freezing temperature. The police rescued him. He could not speak, instead he snarled and tried to bite the policeman who held him. They left him at a hospital near Moscow. The boy seemed to be ten years old but could have been older as he appeared quite under developed. He had claw like finger and toe nails and resembled wolf like traits. The hospital staff bathed him, cut his nails and took blood samples, they named him Lyokha. The wolf boy clearly seemed discomforted by the attention and fled the hospital within 24 hours.
