Wow this sure is weird...
On our psychology class, we watched a Finnish document from early 80s or 70s, that ilvolved a feral or wild child named "Kossivi" by the founders of the kid.
I think it was some French people who had found him at Ghana. He acted like an animal. He couldn't talk, he only made voices like sighing, growling, laughing and yelping. He tried to bite and had problems walking like normal human (They said that when they found him, he couldn't stand on 2 legs at all, but walked like an animal). He acted all loud and crazy too.
Large part of the documentary was in English and French. Our teacher said that she had got the copy of the video from another teacher.
Here comes the weird thing:
I searched for Kossivi from google and I couldn't find anything. Wikipedia article about feral childs doesn't know anything about Kossivi.
Finally when I googled "Feral child kossivi", I found this:

Wow, now I feel like I should edit Wikipedia or even borrow the video from our teacher and upload to youtube or something. I have no idea what happened to this documentary. If it would have been just Finnish, I would have understood, but this???
