Child found living with monkeys

[Catherine]

I had the same thought. She wasn't well though. The monkey diet wouldn't work for her. They can eat leaves and bark. As a human she can't digest that. I think she would have been lacking in protein. Still. the way she was taken away was frightening or her. I wish the could have coaxed her away gradually. They could have brought her food and blankets and won her over. Then her first encounter with humans would have been kind and friendly, not a kidnapping from the monkey family that raised her.

I wonder what will happen to her. I think children raised by animals never quite fit in. It is interesting that animals have no trouble accepting a human child in their midst.
