The miracle children who survived a fatal plane crash and 40 days in an unforgiving Colombian jungle have been rescued, but the rescue dog that first located them is MIA.
Wilson the rescue dog actually found the kids days before rescuers got to the kids, ages 13, 9, 4 and 11 months. Wilson stayed by the children’s side for several days, but when rescuers located the children, Wilson was gone.
The 13-year-old, Lesly, drew a picture from her hospital bed of her experience in the jungle, and Wilson was right there, front and center. The dog gave the kids comfort and hope.
No one knows where Wilson went. It’s possible he left to find rescuers to lead them to the children, but it’s simply a mystery. The kids were rescued June 9, and the dog hasn’t been seen since. Nevertheless, there’s a rescue team out there, trying to find the canine hero.
