The paper introduces different stories about feral children being raised by
animals, since the first works of Ancient Mesopotamia, to the novels in modern
prose, and names some of the diverse cases of feral children raised by different
animals found in real life. Then, it focuses on the real cases of feral children
documented all over the world which Rudyard Kipling could have used as a
source of inspiration, followed by the novels, stories and classical legends that
have feral children raised by animals into its characters, all of them written
before Kipling wrote The Jungle Book in 1895. Also, there is a brief summary of
the life of Rudyard Kipling and an introduction and synopsis of both, The Jungle
Book, and The Second Jungle Book. Moreover, it is mentioned the different
settings Kipling used in the story that exist in India, as some cities, and some
natural environments. Finally, it is mentioned a handwritten letter from Kipling
where he recognises taken ideas from other sources to write the story of Mowgli. [-]
