Lost toddler survives three days in Siberian taiga alone
Three days of searches by more than 100 police and rescue workers, sniffer dogs and a helicopter yielded no result. Eventually, the boy heard his uncle calling and replied. He was just a few kilometers from his house.
The first thing the little boy asked for was his toy car, a rescue worker said, according to local media.
Tserin probably survived because he didn`t panic, a local emergency worker was quoted as saying. The first thing he did after he got lost was finish some chocolate in one of his pockets. Then he laid down in a dry spot under a larch tree and fell asleep.
Quite predictably, he has already been nicknamed Mowgli.
