Four children were rescued in the Colombian Amazon after a plane crash forced them to survive in the jungle for 40 days. The crash sparked a frantic search that transfixed the nation for over a month as the children were alone with little food and threats of wild animals like tigers and venomous snakes loomed in the rainforest.
WSJ spoke with a family member and the military general who oversaw the search to rescue the children sharing the challenges of the operation and how the youths survived.
