'Wild Cambodia jungle-girl' found
A Cambodian girl who disappeared aged eight has been found after living wild in the jungle for 19 years, police say.
Local police said the woman was "half-human and half-animal" and could not speak any intelligible language.
"When I saw her, she was naked and walking in a bending-forward position like a monkey... She was bare bones.

-interesting that there are many similar cases of humans being raised by wild animals. |

Perhaps she was cavorting with the dinosaurs hidden away in the forest... |

Well, of course, that goes without saying as it is the Muslims that are hiding the dinosaurs in the forests of Cambodia... |

Yes. Exactly right. And Cambodia ought to adjust her immigration policies to keep out the Muslim hordes as soon as possible. |

She doesn't look very wild in the photo, just sort of bored. |

She wants to return to the jungle. Should she be allowed to do that? |
