Real Life "Mowgli-Girl" Was Raised by the Wild Animals of Africa

In Her Parents Footsteps

Tippi adjusted to the world outside of the wild African safari, but she never really got over her first home. As an adult, she made a few trips back to Africa. Her first trip was to shoot documentaries for the Discovery Channel. She reconnected with some of the tribes that had raised her as a child. She also used the trips back to find out more about her childhood. She eventually published her memoirs in a book called “Tippi: My Book of Africa”.
