From HuckFunn: Glad they found the little guy. The parents who abandoned him should be publicly flogged.

A Japanese boy who was found after being lost in a bear-inhabited forest for six days when his parents tried to discipline him has been rushed to hospital.
Yamato Tanooka, seven, had been missing since Saturday, when his parents made him get out of their car as punishment for misbehaving, leaving him behind in a wooded area on Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost main island.
On Friday he was found alive at an old Self-Defense Forces training facility in the town of Shikabe, Hokkaido, about five kilometres from where he disappeared.
He was taken to Hakodate Hospital by helicopter suffering from exhaustion, after five days without food or water. Here he was reunited with his parents.
