The four siblings, ages 13 to 1, were traveling in a small aircraft that crashed in the Colombian Amazon on May 1. Their mother and two others were killed.
The Organization of the Indigenous Peoples of the Colombian Amazon said in a statement that their survival is a sign of a “knowledge and relationship with the natural environment of life,” which is “learned from the mother’s womb and practiced from a very early age.”
That makes sense. It seems unlikely you'd survive in the jungle unless you already know the basics.
