Over the years, there has been much speculation about feral children,
supposedly raised by animals. And, while it is true that creatures of one
species will sometimes raise the young of another species, there has never
been a recorded case (as far as I know) of a documented feral child,
especially one who was taken in by a non-human nurturer before the age
when language begins to be acquired (e.g. before the age of about one
year).
