A 2-day-old baby left for dead has made a miraculous turnaround.

The infant was found naked in a banana leaf — insects and worms crawling across her tiny bruised body — in a Thai forest.

She was discovered Dec. 19 in the Krabi province by villagers who were collecting rubber from trees. Though covered in bug bites and cuts, she was still alive — she started crying and opened her eyes as soon as they picked her up. 

Police were called, and paramedics soon trekked across the hilly area to where the child was being tended to by the villagers, according to Newsflare. 

The baby girl was taken by ambulance to a hospital, where she was treated and kept under observation. She was found to be dehydrated but otherwise healthy, and doctors do not expect her to have any long-term health issues from the ordeal. 

Authorities are searching for the child’s mother, who “will be prosecuted,” said police Col. Prasit Yodthong.

“The nearest hospital records showed that no women had given birth there. It is likely that the mother gave birth elsewhere and abandoned the child in the middle of the hill,” Yodthong said.

“The baby could have died and we think that whoever left the girl knew this,” he added.

Officers are in the process of interviewing people from nearby villages, asking if they know anyone who was recently pregnant. 

Once discharged from the Khao Phanom hospital, where the child is being monitored, she will likely be placed in the government’s orphan system.
