Surviving 40 days in the Amazon: Four children found alive after plane crash.

TL;DR Summary
Four Indigenous children who survived a small plane crash in the Amazon jungle 40 days ago were found alive and alone by searchers on Friday. The children are receiving medical attention and are an "example of survival," according to Colombian President Gustavo Petro. The search for the children involved 150 soldiers with dogs and dozens of volunteers from Indigenous tribes. The children, ages 13, 9, 4, and 11 months, are members of the Huitoto people and had some knowledge of how to survive in the rainforest. The cause of the crash is still unknown.
