The Maiwana Wolf Boy

Aged between 7 and 12, the Maiwana Wolf Boy was found in a wolf's den in 1927. He had apparently been surviving on grass and roots (not raw meat?), and had the familiar calloused knees and hands from going around on all fours. He was occasionally subject to fits, during which he would attack people and even bite himself.
