One of the boys shouted for help when he heard the local man hitting the trees nearby. Following the calls, the man found the two boys lying on the rainforest floor, hungry and weak, with many skin abrasions.

According to local media, the two boys told their parents they had eaten nothing while lost and had had only rainwater to drink.

The boys have now been flown to a hospital were they are being treated for shock and malnourishment and are  expected to make a full recovery .

 

This is not the first time people have gotten lost in the Amazon rainforest.
