What is meant by the term in feral children?

The term "feral children" refers to children who have lived outside of human society, either from birth or from an extremely young age. They are often found in remote areas such as forests or mountains, and may have had limited or no contact with other humans. Feral children are typically characterized by a lack of social skills and language development, and may exhibit unusual behavior patterns due to their upbringing in a non-human environment. Research on feral children provides insights into the importance of social and cultural interaction for human development and learning.
