Australian toddler rescued after four day search - BBC News

A three-year-old boy who went missing in the Australian bush four days ago has been found safe after a search.

The little boy, who has autism and doesn't speak, had been last seen at the house on Friday.

His family had feared that he had been abducted.

But rescuers found AJ on a riverbank about 500m from his house on the vast property in Putty, in the state's north.

For a little one, he has an incredible sense of self preservation! What a great day! So very happy for him and his family. It's going to be quite a while before he's allowed into another room by his mother! They must have been losing their minds. Such a relief!

Kid be like: "i don't need society"

It is a miracle. For sure angels were taking care of him while being in the woods. I can’t imagine a three year old spend three days and nights in the woods without being taken care of.

It's a miracle! The rescuers are real heroes 🥰

Thanks God, because he returned to his mother's hug that is full of affectation, I hope any children around the world never miss mothernal hug and love is the biggest wish for me, specially for children who have to live in war areas, accepting missing home and calmness is very impossible even for adult people, so it is harder for children wish any child will no longer experience war and lack of safety

As an introvert, I can relate. Perfect!

[nayashams]
