Dina Sanichar (1860 or 1861โ1895) was a feral boy. A group of hunters discovered him among wolves in a cave in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, India in February 1867, at the age of around six. Sanichar was sent to the Secundra orphanage at Agra where he lived among other humans for over twenty years. He never learned to speak and remained seriously impaired his entire life.

Dina Sanichar was discovered in a cave in the district of Bulandshahr and was brought to William Lowe, the local district magistrate and collector. Lowe subsequently sent Sanichar to the Secundra orphanage at Agra.
At the orphanage, he was given the name "Sanichar" because he arrived on a Saturday. When he arrived at the orphanage, he reportedly walked on all fours and ate raw meat. While he could not speak, he would make sounds similar to a wolf. He went on to live among other humans for over twenty years but never learned to speak and remained seriously impaired his entire life. Sanichar was a heavy smoker.

He died of tuberculosis in 1895.
Sanichar was possibly the inspiration for the character Mowgli in The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling.
