It's a miracle that these 4 children survived a plane crash and stayed alive in the Amazon forest for 40 days. Both the pilot and their Mom died (the Mom survived the plane crash but died 4 days later).

The children ages were from 11 months to 13 years old only. Their Mother's spirit probably helped to protect them.

Yes, it is a miracle.

Food remained in the air plane, and fruit they found in the forest.

Good thing they didnt ate any poisonous fruits

They are indigenous children (native to the area) and the eldest girl was taught by her Mother & grandfather on what fruits in the jungle are edible and other survival skills. However where they used to live was not in the dense amazon jungle where there were snakes, and other wild animals.

They ate some casava flour from the plane until it ran out and tried to leave. Because they were moving, so it was harder to locate them if the search team thought they already sẻarched in that area. The girl told her father they ate wild fruits and hid in the tree trunks to avoid snakes/wild animals. The youngest was only 11 months old and turned 1 then they were lost in the jungle.

I am sure the eldest girl was very scared but she had to be brave to take care of her other 3 younger siblings. Both the maternal grandfather & the father want custody of the children and the government is investigating whether the Father may have been abusive or not b4 deciding to turn the children over to him. The mother and the children were living with her family b4 and they were on their way to rejoin the Father because he was hiding from some military groups.

I believe the children were 13, 9, 4 (turned 5 in the jungle), and 11 months old (turned 1 in the jungle). Considering how young they were, it was a miracle all 4 survived the plane crash & 40 days in the jungle.

Its a good thing they didnt splitted up
