Feral child

A feral child is a person who has grown up without any human contact or without any proper care and education from others. Generally, this means that the child was raised by animals, and it is why this type of person is often referred to as a "wild child". Feral children may have been abandoned or could have grown up in the wilderness and not had contact with humans. They often do not know how to talk, interact with others, or behave in a socially acceptable way.
