13. The Leopard Boy, India, 1912
At two years old, this boy was taken in by a Leopardess and raised with her cubs. Three years later, the Leopardess was shot. When he was discovered, the boy was taken to his family in a small village in India. He could run fast on all fours, bit and fought anyone who came near him, and couldn’t speak though he grunted and growled.
After years of living with humans, he finally learned to speak and walk upright.
