KAZAN, Russia, July 14 (UPI) -- A girl brought up by a pack of wild dogs has been discovered in Russia.
The news agency Regnum reports 14-year-old Ramzia Tukmatullina is the daughter of an alcoholic and has been living with the dogs since she was much younger. Neighbors nicknamed her Naida, a popular Russian dog's name.
A local police officer in Kazan reported the case to authorities, leading to an invitation to the girl to appear on a Moscow talk show.
The news agency said there have been a number of similar cases in recent years, usually involving the children of alcoholics. In one case, a girl in the Ukraine was discovered living in a dog house with the family dog.
