What happens when a human grows up without society?
Feral children are real. Cannibalism has occurred in history. And across centuries, cultures have told stories of wild men, cave-dwelling clans, and pale figures watching from the treeline.
In this episode of Arcane Station, we investigate documented cases of extreme isolation, the legend of Sawney Bean, rumors from Appalachia and Alum Rock Park, and the biology of inbreeding and regression.
How far can a human drift from civilization, and still remain human?
