A child in shock
"Hungry, thirsty and freezing," in the words of the Lincoln County Sheriff, the child was in shock when he was found, as a photo shared by US media reveals.
According to information from the authorities, he got lost after taking a long walk alone, at the end of which he was exhausted.
Now, the police are trying to understand why the parents of the child waited two hours before reporting his disappearance.
And how, at 3 years old, he was able to go alone to walk in a forest inhabited by wild animals.
Still, the toddler, frightened when help arrived, lit up at the sight of his parents.
