An 8 year old survivalist. He was taught was to do to survive in nature, even when it's cold.
Nante Niemi went missing in the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park of Michigan's Upper Peninsula on Saturday afternoon, according to Michigan State Police. The boy went off to collect firewood but did not return to his family's campsite, prompting them to call police.
Michigan State Police and local police mobilized a search and rescue party of more than 150 people, as well as K-9 units and aviation to search the roughly 40-square-mile area in foot and from the air. On Monday afternoon, a search volunteer located Niemi cuddled under a log about two miles away from the campsite.
"He had braved the elements by taking shelter under a log where he was ultimately found. He is in good health and reunited with his family," MSP said in a statement.
In another tweet, MSP noted that many had asked how the second-grader survived in the woods, where temperatures were in the 30s and 40s.
"Lieutenant Wickstrom says the boy told them he covered up with branches and leaves for warmth and also blanketed the log he was under. He didn't have any food but ate clean snow for hydration," MSP said.
