Tales pin Is also nice television show I like to watch this show adventures , comic, nicely created ..

Legends of feral children, particularly ones in which the part of the foster parent is played by a wolf, go back to antiquity. The most famous ancient one is that of Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, but they're common enough for the phrase "raised by wolves", or its equivalent, to have entered many languages as an idiom meaning wild, uncouth, lacking in human sensibilities. Mowgli, the protagonist of most stories collected in Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book (1894) and The Second Jungle Book (1895), was raised by wolves, but in a nice way — instead of displaying the dementia and stunted development found in real or suspected feral children, he grew up in an idyllic wilderness wonderland — not entirely devoid of privation and danger, but on the whole pleasant and friendly, with much scope for adventure, humor and other elements of a good story.
