I have not seen such unmitigated swill so shamelessly promoted by a major publication:
https://www.theguardian.com/news/201...ised-by-wolves
The writer relates with credulity that this guy was living with wolves in a cave from age 7 to age 19.
Twelve years. I see this hoax has been going for some time, with an Italian movie made about him. I guess it sells copy.
I just don't understand why nobody believed him when he first started saying he was raised by wolves. A regular Dr. Dolittle, talking to the different animals with different kinds of grunts and sounds.
It's so tragic because you see his life with animals was idyllic, but then ruined by his capture, resulting in suppression of his native languages (wolf, squirrel, raven, snake, and lower Apulia frog chirping.)
He was a slave too. In fact, the longer you talk to him the more incredible his life becomes.
I was most keenly interested in how he claims to have transitioned to wolf care from regular human child care. It was an insight into Italian animal husbandry. When a shepherd is killed, nobody notices. The landowner has to keep coming back week after week to check on his sheep, but he never notices the guy he hired to watch and report on sheep is missing.
So he doesn't replace this shepherd. We must infer the economic value of Shepherds is zero, despite the wolf population. In this one place, but not anywhere else, because they replace shepherds who have been missing for weeks anywhere else.
Anyway it is the shepherd disappearing that gives our wolf boy his big break. He was forced to transition to wolf life because the shepherd wasn't there to feed him.
These wolves were so cunning that they did not kill any sheep while they were unguarded. The boy too, no sense in eating any yummy lamb. Like the shepherd fed him. That would bring the shotguns, so the best thing is to be as smart as the wolves. Learn to speak squirrel and rabbit. Hop on all fours. Wear deerskin hides.
I wonder why he isn't working with the top scientists on wolf research? Is this just another example of science being so dominated by vested interests that they deny human-animal languages? This guy right here spoke at least six.
