Makes you wonder what goes on in peoples heads...  why not give it up to a good family that wants a baby!  Leave it in the woods,  they need to be found and tied to a tree for a few night out in the bushes . NAKED      no bug spray!

    Maybe, this is the habitat for some newborns.
    Where were the parents?

Think I saw this on facebook or a story of a small baby   not able to walk yet had crawled away.  The father was on Crack. Luckily the police found him.

That is such a startling story, but it's great to have some good news. That is one lucky lucky little child. I hope for the best for that little one and that the worst thing that ever will happen to them is now behind them.

I saw this on the news at 4:00 this morning.  They searched all night.  They hadn't said that the little boy had been found.  So glad he has been!

I had not heard this story either.  I am so glad the young one year old was found:



A one-year-old boy has been found safe in the Oregon woods after his father abandoned him for more than six hours.

Bradley Thomas was discovered by police covered in dirt, naked and alone on Thursday after a search involving drones, helicopters and riders on horseback.

Authorities said that the boy's father Brandon M Blouin, 25, has been booked into the Deschutes County Jail on multiple charges including first-degree criminal mistreatment, second-degree child neglect, third-degree assault and endangering the welfare of a minor.

Blouin, from Ohio, told police that he left his son to look for the boy's mother, but they suspect the father was on drugs when he abandoned Bradley in the forest.

Authorities say someone called around 6.15am on Thursday when Blouin came out of the woods and onto a strangers's property.

The witness said Bouin asked them to call 911.

The father told police that he had been staying in an SUV with his son and the boy's 18-year-old mother.

He added that the SUV was parked on the forest land and the mother left Bradley with Blouin.

The Sherrif's office said that when she did not immediately return, Blouin told them that he took the baby to go looking for his mother.

At one point he confessed to putting the one-year-old down and walking away.   

Detective Doug Jackson finally found Bradley lying naked in dirt around 12.10pm one mile from where Blouin's SUV was parked.

He was found in the area of Sholes Road and Tekampe Road, in southeast Bend. 

The detective who found the boy wrapped him in a sheriff officer's jacket to keep him warm and he was taken to a hospital in Bend for evaluations.

The sheriff's office held a donation for Bradley for new or lightly uses items such as clothes, toys and blankets.

Donations poured in as the office received donations from nearly a dozen of people.

KTVZ reports that toys, blankets, shows, clothing and diapers were dropped off on Friday at the office.
