Boy, 7, found alive five days after going missing in 'lion-infested' game park
After wandering away from his home, the boy used wildlife knowledge to survive, digging holes along a riverbank to find drinking water and eating wild fruits.
Labelling Tinotenda's survival "a true miracle", the MP wrote in a post on X: "We are overwhelmed with gratitude to the brave park rangers, the tireless Nyaminyami community who beat night drums each day to get the boy hear sound & get the direction back home & everyone who joined the search. "During this period, he survived on wild fruits and would dig a small hole along the dry riverbank to access underground water to drink, a technique that is well known in drought prone areas." "We commend the efforts of the rangers, community members, and the [Zimbabwe Republic Police] in ensuring the safe return of the boy to his family," the ZimParks spokesperson added in a post on X.
