Anyone ever take the Jungle Book to heart and wish that they really were raised by wild animals? Because that is so what happened to a child in Siberia.

"For five years, she was 'brought up' by several dogs and cats and had never been outside," a police statement said.
"The unwashed girl was dressed in filthy clothes, had the clear attributes of an animal and jumped at people," it said.


And the sweet headline of the article: 'Barking' Feral Girl 'Raised By Dogs'
Why? Because
"When carers leave the room, the girl jumps at the door and barks," the police said.

Awesome. Naturally, it happened in somewhere like Eastern Siberia, a place almost as exoticly romantic as the African jungle.
