The Colombian military leaves 70 soldiers in the Amazon jungle to look for a beloved search dog who helped them rescue a group of missing children earlier this month.
When the small plane was found, and the search party realised that the children could still be alive, Wilson's handler gave him some clothes to sniff and track down the kids.
"The children spoke to us, and confirmed that the dog was with them for two or three days," General Sanchez said.But recently, 13 year-old Lesly Mucutuy — who is the oldest child in the group — drew a picture of the rainforest that included a brown-coloured dog, which looks like Wilson.Last week, Colombia's military said it airlifted two female dogs in heat to the area around the crash site in the hopes of luring Wilson towards the search party.
But Colombia continues to root for the stranded pup, with Wilson's name becoming a popular hashtag on social media sites and his fans posting messages that urge the military to continue the search.
