Amazing story - I feel so bad for both the monkeys and the girl.

I wonder if she will be able to tell her story once she "finds her voice". It should be SO interesting!

Wow, so Jungle Book really isn't that far fetched! I wonder how she ended up with them and for how long?

There are lots of these stories historically. The only important difference between Jungle Book & Tarzan (and for that matter Romulus and Remus) and reality is that these children are usually damaged for life.

Psychologically they usually have difficulty functioning in human society for life : (

Would it be more humane to let them stay with their animal family? I wonder.
