Living With Animals


We’ve all heard of stories of children with terrible upbringings, but have you heard of children being raised by animals? Numerous ‘feral’ kids have been isolated from human contact from a very young age and grew up wild, sometimes even being taken care of by animals.

Marina Chapman
Marina Chapman claims that when she was just five years old, she was kidnapped and then abandoned in the Colombian jungle for approximately five years. In this time she was ‘adopted’ by a group of capuchin monkeys, and taught her to live off the land and survive. Marina, who is now an author of a popular book, stated that the monkeys taught her how to catch birds and rabbits with her hands, and led her to clean drinking water. After the five years of being raised by the monkeys, she was found by hunters and was eventually re-introduced back into society.


Chile Dog Boy
Known as the ‘Dog Boy’ this Chilean boy, now 24 years of age, was abandoned by his 16 year old mother and left to fend for himself. At the age of 8 the boy took refuge with a pack of dogs, who took him in as one of their own. They taught him how to hunt and survive, even keeping him warm during the harsh winters. After two years living with animals, he was found by police in 2001 and captured. He was later taken to a child care centre and forced back into society.

 Marcos Rodríguez Pantoja
Marcos Rodríguez Pantoja, now 68 years of age, is a well-known feral child. When he was just seven he was sold to a goatherd by his father.

Most Hated Person on The Internet III

(continuation of the last post)

After Melissa Bachman, a television presenter and avid life-long hunter, uploaded a photo in Facebook of her with an animal gun that she used for hunting and sitting beside a dead lion, the public went crazy. She tweeted it as "An incredible day hunting in South Africa! Stalked inside 60-yards on this beautiful male lion...what a hunt!"

All kinds of embarrassments online were thrown to her. She couldn't stand their hurtful comments and bashes so she shut down her twitter account. There was even a petition on a site change.org that will be asking the South Africa government to expel her from the country.

However, there are other people who defended her action. They were saying that she had a legal permit to hunt and she paid thousands of dollars to do it. However, the anti-hunting groups are insisting that what she did was illegal. It was also found that the petition in the said website is a fake or dishonest. Her hunting wasn't just an interest or hobby, it was actually given to the South African people who needed them. Did you know that hunting plays a huge role in South Africa? That means banning hunting acts will make the economy worsen.

" thats disgusting you should be ashamed"
"drop dead you scum bag!!!!"
"Associating yourself with alligator farmers in Florida that harvest skins for luxury products means bad PR & zero hunting!"
"can't wait till someone shoots you, it will happen, it will be a good day."
"I sincerely hope someday some animal kills your most loved ones and then dont kill you but rips of your arms. Ugly cunt"
