Lived with ostriches
Sidi Mohamed is another child who never lost his name. He was playing outside at the age of 5 or 6, and wandered off into the bush where he met ostriches who became his foster family.

Caught by hunters
Some 10 years later Sidi Mohamed was finally caught by men out hunting. During his decade-long ostrich vacation he is said to have lived on grass.
