Marcos Rodríguez Pantoja (born 7 June 1946, in Añora, Spain) is a noted feral child. He was reportedly sold to a hermitic goatherder at seven and after the goatherder's death, he lived alone with the wolves in the Sierra Morena. At 19, he was returned to civilization, but had difficulty adjusting. Gabriel Janer Manila went on to write a PhD thesis concerning him, which was titled He jugado con lobos (English title I Have Played with Wolves).[1]

He later became the subject of the film Entrelobos (English title Among Wolves), in which he appears briefly.[2][3]
