That’s the thing with small children. You can’t let them out of your sight for a “hot minute.” It’s crazy the trouble they can get themselves into so quickly.
The look on this kid's face in the picture from when he's found makes me think of the old pics of shell shocked ww2 and Vietnam War soldiers. So thankful this Lil boy is OK. It really is amazing. Poor baby, this is so good!
That photo of him in the hospital was very shocking, but I heard he was very happy to see his parents, so it seems hopeful that he will make a full psychological recovery. I hope that is the case and that he’s able to grow up to recognize how amazing it is that he survived on his own in the woods at such a young age.
PLEASE PARENTS, THIS MAKES NO SENSE! ITS BECOMING COMMON NOW FOR SMALL CHILDREN TO GO MISSING AND THEN ARE FOUND! Our children are being kidnapped and antagonized into fear of his family being injured! So they say nothing and everyone's so happy the child's alive NO FURTHER ACTIONS ARE INVESTIGATED! Unethical Satanic organizations live amongst us in our Communities as neighbors, clergy, day care, local bar, grills, establishments, agencies! They are very tightly knit and in positions of trust, affiliated to connected organizations with Pedophile agendas. They are operating in plain sight and have access to our children's where abouts. Come on, OPEN YOUR EYES! TRUST NO ONE WITH YOUR CHILDREN, QUESTION AND INVESTIGATE EVERY MISSING, MISPLACED CHILD!!! Parents keep close ties with other parents when your kids get off an on the school buses, pay special attention to the children who are dropped off last, call each other, question your children, extreme HYPERVIGILANCE WITH MENTALLY DISABLED CHILDREN. Ask if they've been dropped off somewhere and picked up before being brought home! ❤️🙏
Yeah I've heard stories like that. Kids saying they were carried away and fed by the "fuzzy man" and different things like that. I love watching the missing 411 stuff. Very strange things happen in the woods.
Ryker looks like a right little character. He reminds me of the “actually” kid. This Sherriff was engaging, warm, and I felt like I was right there with him as the events unfolded. Would love to hear more of his stories. Especially appreciate him sincerely acknowledging the volunteers, thank you to everyone who helped contribute to Rykers safe return. This goes to show that teaching your kids how to ask for help if you’re lost in the bush is just as important as the shopping centre, and from the moment they can walk (not to mention staying away from water without a big person). Every parent has a story of the day they lost their kid for a minute, or five minutes, or ten- the utter panic and turning hysterical. For 99.9%, they find their child within a few minutes and are flooded relief, and it becomes a story. But, for the 0.1% who don’t become lucky, they are thrust into a nightmare- from there, most don’t get the happy ending that Ryker and his family did. Yet the other 99.9% of parents who lost their children for five minutes quickly forget their own whisker near-misses, parsing judgement. “You can’t ever let your child out of your sight, even for a second”. There but for the grace of God.
Thats a smart little boy right there!! He actually saved himself, if he had not found and took shelter when he did, he probably would not have survived this. Don't underestimate our little people, he's a hero!!!
So glad to hear the outcome of the story is positive so many times it takes a bad turn it's heartbreaking for anyone dealing with a loss of a child or simply a missing child
I've seen it before..2-3 year olds wandering off. They can cover a lot more ground and more quickly than adults realize or are willing to believe. I'm so glad he was found unharmed.
@@pumpkindiamond994 Yes, absolutely. They may have little legs but they do have stamina when they want and the adrenaline of being lost is always a kick in the pants.
Yeah. Kids can go real fast honestly. I was one of those kids where I would be zooming outside directly onto the street slipping past my parents (who were blocking the way with their bodies to prevent me from escaping) where there were busy cars and I just thought it was a game. I was about 3 years old and even my teenage siblings couldn’t catch me.
@@IntrepidFraidyCat same!! My son was right next to me and when I turned I couldn't find him and was frantically screaming for him and running through the store and we found him at the front door greeting everyone! It was definitely a terrifying moment and after that, trust me, one hand on the cart and he had to hold my other hand from that day on! 🙂
For anyone wondering what actually happened: So the most reasonable story the cops have put together is actually that he lived kinda out in the country by mountain trails and got out of his house one day and started looking for bugs on the trail. He was just wondering around along the trails and realized he was lost. He thought if he kept going he could find his way home. He probably would have stopped except he really needed to get home so he kept walking even though he’s tired. He managed to make it 2.4 miles and lightning storms started. He found a cabin nearby and was smart enough to get into the cabin for the night instead of staying in the storms. Meanwhile his parents searched for him for 2 hours before calling the police and a full search was launched. Because they had waited 2 hours, Ryker was farther along than they searched. Once the storm started, they had to stop the search but continued on the next day, and the day after that. He had gone missing Friday afternoon and was found on Sunday in the cabin he had found shelter in. He was found by the owners of the cabin, and was returned to his parents. The reason he looked so traumatized in the second picture is because he was. He had stayed alone in a cabin during storms and not knowing if he was ever gonna see his family again for 2 whole days. He also had no food or water. As a 3 year old, the boy is able to talk so this is not a made up story, this is actually what the boy told the police, and what the police believe most likely happened. Also he was wearing different clothing when he was found, but one explaination is that he found those clothes in the cabin or maybe changed before he ran off without his parents knowledge. Either way, it’s not exactly an unsolved disappearance. It is still an open case because no one can say for sure what really happened. But at the current moment, this is the most widely excepted and most plausible explanation.
It seems like to me (and I hate to speculate here but..). I think he wasn't being watched very closely and honestly they have no idea WHEN he exactly went missing because someone wasn't being a very good babysitter. That's just my opinion though. 3 yrs old is that weird age where they're really kinda still a baby but they're tough. Hard headed and incredibly resilient. The most obvious explanation for the clothing (which is really weird IMO all on its own) is that they were his clothes. Maybe not the ones he went missing in but maybe older ones he had outgrown. My ten yr old has quite a bit in her closet that she's outgrown because it seems like she's having growths spurts every other day and twice on Sundays. So the clothing was probably his but how did he have it on hand? Did he change in it before he went missing and they just really weren't paying a damn bit of attention or ... Did he bring a little bag with him? So many questions. There are so many weird stories of people (particularly males for some reason) going missing in, near or around forests and national parks. Weird stuff.
Just saw this now so very late to comment I know. BUT I fully agree and think there is way more to this than has been shared. He was 3 years old at the time....appears nobody was watching him???? who were the adults in charge of him at the time and also why are even the police or whoever just saying " oh he was used to playing on the trails oit the back" and seemed to have just gone off on his now. I am all for self confidence and not hovering over children let them explore a little but a child at that age you still need to be WITH them as they do that...within eyesight and quick reaching sight just incase. I sure hope the authorites investicated further about this Quite shocking if this was it.
I think a lot of people don’t realize how far and quickly a child this age can go, because all they’ve experienced is their child’s movements when they’re always around. You cut a kid loose and zoom they can go for long distances. If you’ve ever turned your head in the grocery store, turned back and they’re gone, they’re never just one aisle over, are they?
As it was reported locally. The people that owned the cabin upon hearing about the lost boy. Decided to go up to thier property and look around for the Boy. Let's hear from the people that Found The Boy. Best Wishes! M.H.
TFS. That was very helpful info. These stories often leave out some of the most important details. I found myself wondering, if no one was there when he peeked in the cabin windows, and they weren’t there 80 or 90% of the time, how did they hear him whimper???
They always say it was cops who found the kid.. the murderer and victim- it was us kids who found the dead body here when I was 15 and in the papers of course they said cops found her.
@@susanmei9980 the Sheriff telling the world that properties are empty most of the time just might cause a bunch of Burglaries. I Truly Believe that. 🙃
@@vaughnreedjr6592 clearly you've never had a toddler and don't appreciate how quickly they can get away. There isn't a parent on the planet that hasn't had this happen at least once where their child got away from them, if even for a brief moment.
This child slept in a lawn mower bag? He is very smart; at 3 years old, no one has taught him survival skills, so that's impressive. I am so glad to hear he is okay.
Funny that's not what the towns people are saying. Boy said he was with a bear and was scared half to death when they found him. Also not dehydrated or wet and there was no way he made it that far with people on horseback and ATVs chasing after him. Notice the bloody nose too, didn't fall either according to the child... This is the second toddler that disappeared that quick, gone 2.5 days, heavy weather and cold, no food or water but is found relatively unharmed and states that: I was with a bear. Not gonna say it, do your own research and start opening your eyes. There are things going on in this world you aren't being told. When the families say the authorities are lying, and they should know... you better get your heads out of your asses.
What an absolute miracle! The father must have been beside himself with reproach. Toddlers move very fast, and many first time parents are unaware of that. This boy was smart and lived on instinct for 2 days. It must have been so terrifying for him at that very young age, poor thing. A huge thank you to the Sheriff and police and volunteers. You were awesome!
Anyone can play perfect parents in this position just be glad it didn't happen too you If he didn't have parents who educated him he wouldn't have survived that a fact
I believe the storms are what saved his life its because of them storms,rain, thunder, winds that kept all the preditors out there sheltering as well. this little boy definitely had an Angel watching over him so glad he was found safe and sound. 👍🙂
@@sophieloves7092 I really can't. I am sure the father beat himself up over and over out of guilt. The news is full of bad outcomes. It is really nice this one isn't.
@@QueenQofDiamonds I have a 25 yr old and a 15 yr old. They never got lost, hurt or harmed but God knows something similar could've happened to me so many times just like any other parent. In the mall, on vacation, trusting the wrong person... Personally I would never call another parent stupid for this. It's not like he went to a bar and left his kid in an overheated car for hours. Either way, I am sure he beat himself up over and over again for briefly going inside the house. So glad it turned out good!
@@Emy53 you seriously think it isn’t a miracle that a 3 year old survived? And somehow knew how to do all those things like take shelter? It amazes me how blind people are to things beyond us, as humans. We aren’t the only living beings. I guarantee you that little boy will tell you angels helped him survive.
@@Amanda-Renee yes someone was there helping that child. Though I do not think that is the same child. I think they did something to the other kid and swapped him with that child.
Renee I guess those "angels" that don't exist couldn't do anything to help the children who unfortunately didn't survive. It's absolutely pure, sheer luck that he made it.
I did the same thing when I was three, but I was found on the same day, 3.4 miles away, at the R.O.T.C. Academy, wandering around in their cafe, looking for chow. The cops returned me to my folks and I was still hungry.
@Alex Xander I had a habit of wandering off. I just like adventure. But that day I got lost. I was too little to know what I was doing and didn't know how to get back. But apparently I smelled the food in the R.O.T.C. building and walked in for a bite, though I didn't get any.
I couldn't imagine how happy that little fella's mommy and daddy felt. I would have dropped to my knees, thanked God and hug him so hard and long-never letting go. Thank you, God.
My son who was younger left with the dog. My neighbor found him a few blocks away. She was driving looking for him and the rest of us were walking. She will always be my hero.
@@dimasbeltran866 thank god that you misunderstood what they meant so I have a chance to teach you what they meant. People did find him, but god was with the child and kept him out of harms way.
@@greego5952 I think the one that misunderstood was you. I did not misunderstand anything or anyone. I simply praised God and gave him all the glory for keeping the baby safe while found. Now let ME teach you something BECAUSE, God was with the child and kept him out of harms ways as you say. Is the the main reason why I gave "God" all the glory !!!! And another thing you need to be taught is that when you refer to him in a sentence or however... It's always "God" with a capital "G" Not "god" as you say !!!!!
On a trail kids can go far. When I was a toddler I got lost for a short time at the Jersey Shore, we were on the beach and my parents just looked away a minute taking care of my baby brother. My Dad found me far down the boardwalk, they were amazed how far I had gotten in such short period of time, I was 2 years old. This was back in the early 60's. Luckily a lady had stopped and was standing with me. Those were more innocent times.
We lived in a great time. Unfortunately many of us didn't know it then. We live in the new world. Now men can be women and win women's sports competition's. Our children can't ride there bic's all day long away from home safely. Let's try and bring some thing's back. Peace
@@bagsbrickerman3168 Men pretend they can be women, pathetic. In the old days as a 6 year old I happily walked to school alone, and we all played outside.
Bags Brickerman the fact that people your age didn't do anything to help keep society safe, yet have the audacity to complain about transgendered people is hilariously annoying 😒. You worried about you and no one else and certainly not the future. Guess you thought you would just coast along?
@@sarcasticallyrearranged lol you sound like you were raised on participation trophies and taught that there are more than 2 genders and you were "born in the wrong body".....it's also apparent you were raised to point the finger and place blame on others. Accountability and integrity are also things our current generation doesn't understand...
Angels? Look at that kids face he seen some shit, this is just like the new exorcist, the girls disappears for 3 days then found hella far from where they were found, and it turns out because they were taken to hell for those 3 days.
Reminds me of when one of my friends "went missing" when he was 10. After a dragnet by the sheriff's department and all the neighbors he was found asleep in his family's Airstream trailer. I'm glad this child was found safe too.
10 & 4 are a big difference I can't see no 4 year old having the knowledge to get shelter like the story is weird & how come they couldn't find him the first day an 4 year old has no sense of direction & walk way slower compared to an adult idk story ah little weird to me who doesn't know their 4 year old is missing
And he was not picked up by somebody and later left behind? I find it so strange that search dogs would not find a three year old who certainly soiled himself during all this time ... and dogs did not smell and hear him? STRANGE. 🤔
@@marilynwillett804 are you delusional?! If he had encountered a wild animal that felt hungry or threatened they would most certainly “bother” him! Do you live in Montana or anywhere with vast wilderness?

Are they sure he wasn’t taken there and left there by someone…maybe they kidnapped him and decided to bring him back or just left him in the shed for a moment to go do something else and then that’s when he was found…..never know…
What a smart little boy, going away from his house in the cold. that's very smart, is that, the little guy did nothing but walk away from his dad, don't understand how is that smart
As a parent of children I want to reach out hug this little angel so tight and never let go. My heart hurts that he went through such an ordeal, all by himself but I'm so glad that he was found safe
Omg as a mama of two little boys. I'm so happy to hear they found this baby. He's a precious soul. My kids have escaped the house before so I know how it feels
I remember sleeping in a bag in South Vietnam 🇻🇳 1968-1971 I survived being in a bag just a bit below ground many were gunned down during sleeping hours I made sure I was covered by ground...
First off, he did not find them, the owners of the cabin where checking on things and found the little boy in their shed. Secondly, why the hell did it take 2 hours before the police where called to report him missing? Thirdly, why was this little boy left alone for so long without supervision? Personally, I have had my own little 3 year old wander off in the woods while I was taking care of his brother. It was absolutely frightening. But once I found him he wasn't that far from the home, and was actually following his dog around :). I was blessed to find him, but still, there's some questions here that need to be answered. Thank God this little boy is safe and sound, he is such a little trooper!
I agree, sincerely! I think peoples heads and eyes are being distracted by our own little personal crystal balls, aka, cell phones! Snapping and POSTING selfies or even pics of your kiddos friends bday party, and bam, your life has passed you by look up from there, ffs!! Imagine the vanity : three of your kids have been gone, lost and missing, your old and grey and not too sharp anymore, and you've spent your life, neglecting everything but your own ego?! It's a No, thanks from me!
FENCED YARD is required for little kids; and DONT let men look after little kids, they just DONT SEE HOW or WHAT a kid is going to do before they do it. MOMS have this innate quality thats why they can SEE ahead of time what a kid is about to do...
He walked down the trail after Dad went in the house for how long? This kid didn't hear Dad calling for him and when the volunteers were looking and calling his name nothing. The sheriff said that we went to the playing place and he wasn't there. Because this little boy had a lead on them. Doesn't make sense. How low were the windows on this cabin for a short little three year old could see in? And how low was the door knob or if no door knob that cabin door was pretty light for him to open? The sheriff or officer sounds really Shakey during the questions before the shed. He accidentally said cabin and nervously said shed. Weird
Omg I have a 3 year old and I can’t even imagine! His poor parents!! 😭 I’m so glad he’s safe and healthy! Poor baby 🥺. Praying for his parents, I would need to be sedated if this happened to my child. Terrifying
It haunts me the picture before and after the after one really doesn’t look like him nose is smaller and eyes are closer together.he went missing in the clothes he was in in the first picture second picture are not his clothes .theory is someone kept him and looked after him .maybe the people if someone did it .kept Ryker for 2 days and when the time came they needed to give him back they might of been scared of the cops and jail poor Ryker
Gotta give that kid props and his parents props (well, not for losing him obviously) but for giving him some kind of idea how to take care of himself and hide.
Sweet little soul was smart enough to find cover and stay there. So glad he was found safe and unharmed. Thank you to everyone who helped try and find this sweet little guy. God bless him 💙
That’s so much easier said than done. Toddlers and young children seem to magically disappear in seconds. Luckily, this tough kid instinctively survived.
@@numberone5680 "Easier said than Done" ..... It is NOT hard to watch a toddler ~ every moment...you HAVE to. When my son was a toddler, I ALWAYS had sight on him...and if I go in the house, I'm certainly taking him in as well and NOT leaving him outside even for a split second.
@@vickie2263 Great that you are 100% perfect. But parents are still human, and it IS a fact that these little ones can be very fast. And whatever lead to this boy wandering off, I'm sure the parents take it as a lesson.
OP is right and I'm failing to see the point of these other responses 🙄 The father went *inside* the house--meaning he literally left his child outside and unattended. I don't care if it was 10 seconds, you cannot "be right back" with a 3 year old--especially with the wilderness as your backyard. He is so lucky his child was found safe and unharmed--though this little guy may have to deal with some subconscious trauma later in llife.
I am thankful to God he is ok but his father had to be in the house more than "A hot sec" for this little fellow to get that far. Parents, watch your children.
I was thinking the same thing too. But kids can move so fast it will blow your mind. I didn't leave my kids outside. I left them upstairs on the bed with snacks watching TV while I washed dishes downstairs and then ran down to the basement to just move the load in the dryer to the basket and the load in the washer to the dryer. It was about 15 minutes total. But I foolishly thought Peppa Pig, snacks and the fact that it was 8 pm at night (though bright outside) would keep them put. I went back upstairs to an empty bedroom. Caught up to them around a corner down the road, with police.
He had guardian angels watching over him & they kept him safe🙏🙏. This is just confirmation that God is real & that's why you' think there's more to the story, as it's unbelievable!! Yet, that's how miracles are, they are hard for the human mind to comprehend. Jesus was with Him & so He is with those who seek Him!!🙏 A wonderful scripture to read is Jeremiah 29:11-14.
Sounds like you are about to fabricate your own story, which is disrespectful. Sometimes kids just wander off & that's exactly what it sounds like here.
@@Galaxie08 disrespectful?? Whats disrespectful about using critical thinking skills to form your own opinion? You believe this story that mainstream media is putting out. How do you know there's not more to this story? You believe the official story and that's why you believe there's nothing else to it. Critical thinking is missing with many people when they believe what's put on the news. Lots of people don't think anymore...just believes what's told to them.
That is not the same kid. Look at the photos the kids noses are completely different. His eyes just widened??? Also, if he just went missing how would he change clothes? Wouldn’t he stay in the same clothes? And that’s a very far distance for a 3yr old to make all by himself. Not the same kid. Need dna test or something. Might be a skin walker scared for the parents
His eyes could be sunken in from no food or water and severe dehydration and shock and fear, BUT that nose is different! And on first glance my mind did question if that was the same kid.
The kid was not alone he said he was alone When he was walking but not for a long Time and they didnt say that the was not the sale clothes he was wearing When he got missing and the didnt say that is the House was More clothes
I honestly don’t believe he walked that whole way, there are cameras spotted on trains with Ryker and the exact outfit he was wearing the day he went missing. Those clothes they found him in, his parents said he didn’t own those clothes so I believe he HAD to have been with someone. There’s just no way.
Wow, for real?? I hadn't heard any of that but it sounds crazy! I know it's been 2 months but I don't suppose you remember where you read that, do you? I'd like to check it out myself. Thanks
No. I worked in a mall Toy Store. Kids would take off and would be found completely on the other side. Two and Three-year-olds. It happened many times.
My son is 3.5 and I couldn’t imagine this horror these parents felt. And that poor baby! What he was thinking that 2 days. I just can’t. I was fighting back the tears the entire time but as soon as the sheriff said the rescuers heard this poor baby whimpering I completely lost it! Full blown hysterically crying uncontrollably! To hear he slept in a leaf catcher bag for a lawnmower I heart breaking! And the poor father!!! He probably beat himself up the entire time since this baby walked off when dad went in for a few minutes. Probably still is coming down hard on himself! Why did this baby do all that time in the shed? No food or water! No toys to keep my occupied! Cold. Maybe a little wet! I’m sure the thoughts he had going through his little head were horrible! Complete horror, heartbreaking and unimaginable! Hold your babies tight tonight! I know I will.

I've seen it before..2-3 year olds wandering off. They can cover a lot more ground and more quickly than adults realize or are willing to believe. I'm so glad he was found unharmed.
Really?
@@pumpkindiamond994 Yes, absolutely. They may have little legs but they do have stamina when they want and the adrenaline of being lost is always a kick in the pants.
Yeah. Kids can go real fast honestly. I was one of those kids where I would be zooming outside directly onto the street slipping past my parents (who were blocking the way with their bodies to prevent me from escaping) where there were busy cars and I just thought it was a game. I was about 3 years old and even my teenage siblings couldn’t catch me.
@Ken Nah That must have been a scary moment for you!
@@IntrepidFraidyCat same!! My son was right next to me and when I turned I couldn't find him and was frantically screaming for him and running through the store and we found him at the front door greeting everyone! It was definitely a terrifying moment and after that, trust me, one hand on the cart and he had to hold my other hand from that day on! 🙂
For anyone wondering what actually happened:
So the most reasonable story the cops have put together is actually that he lived kinda out in the country by mountain trails and got out of his house one day and started looking for bugs on the trail. He was just wondering around along the trails and realized he was lost. He thought if he kept going he could find his way home. He probably would have stopped except he really needed to get home so he kept walking even though he’s tired. He managed to make it 2.4 miles and lightning storms started. He found a cabin nearby and was smart enough to get into the cabin for the night instead of staying in the storms. Meanwhile his parents searched for him for 2 hours before calling the police and a full search was launched. Because they had waited 2 hours, Ryker was farther along than they searched. Once the storm started, they had to stop the search but continued on the next day, and the day after that. He had gone missing Friday afternoon and was found on Sunday in the cabin he had found shelter in. He was found by the owners of the cabin, and was returned to his parents. The reason he looked so traumatized in the second picture is because he was. He had stayed alone in a cabin during storms and not knowing if he was ever gonna see his family again for 2 whole days. He also had no food or water. As a 3 year old, the boy is able to talk so this is not a made up story, this is actually what the boy told the police, and what the police believe most likely happened. Also he was wearing different clothing when he was found, but one explaination is that he found those clothes in the cabin or maybe changed before he ran off without his parents knowledge. Either way, it’s not exactly an unsolved disappearance. It is still an open case because no one can say for sure what really happened. But at the current moment, this is the most widely excepted and most plausible explanation.
It seems like to me (and I hate to speculate here but..). I think he wasn't being watched very closely and honestly they have no idea WHEN he exactly went missing because someone wasn't being a very good babysitter. That's just my opinion though. 3 yrs old is that weird age where they're really kinda still a baby but they're tough. Hard headed and incredibly resilient. The most obvious explanation for the clothing (which is really weird IMO all on its own) is that they were his clothes. Maybe not the ones he went missing in but maybe older ones he had outgrown. My ten yr old has quite a bit in her closet that she's outgrown because it seems like she's having growths spurts every other day and twice on Sundays. So the clothing was probably his but how did he have it on hand? Did he change in it before he went missing and they just really weren't paying a damn bit of attention or ... Did he bring a little bag with him? So many questions. There are so many weird stories of people (particularly males for some reason) going missing in, near or around forests and national parks. Weird stuff.
@@katiejenkins4532i agree with you 💯
Just saw this now so very late to comment I know.
BUT I fully agree and think there is way more to this than has been shared.
He was 3 years old at the time....appears nobody was watching him???? who were the adults in charge of him at the time and also why are even the police or whoever just saying " oh he was used to playing on the trails oit the back" and seemed to have just gone off on his now.
I am all for self confidence and not hovering over children let them explore a little but a child at that age you still need to be WITH them as they do that...within eyesight and quick reaching sight just incase. I sure hope the authorites investicated further about this
Quite shocking if this was it.
@@katiejenkins4532 Agreed.
I think a lot of people don’t realize how far and quickly a child this age can go, because all they’ve experienced is their child’s movements when they’re always around. You cut a kid loose and zoom they can go for long distances. If you’ve ever turned your head in the grocery store, turned back and they’re gone, they’re never just one aisle over, are they?
As it was reported locally.
The people that owned the cabin upon hearing about the lost boy.
Decided to go up to thier property and look around for the Boy.
Let's hear from the people that Found The Boy.
Best Wishes! M.H.
I'm sure glad they decided to go check it out.
@@pegs1659 I am Glad as well.
If upon hearing of such things.
We all watched our own little segments of the world. We could solve a lot of Problems.
TFS. That was very helpful info. These stories often leave out some of the most important details. I found myself wondering, if no one was there when he peeked in the cabin windows, and they weren’t there 80 or 90% of the time, how did they hear him whimper???
They always say it was cops who found the kid.. the murderer and victim- it was us kids who found the dead body here when I was 15 and in the papers of course they said cops found her.
@@susanmei9980 the Sheriff telling the world that properties are empty most of the time just might cause a bunch of Burglaries.

@@runninggreywolf8313 when you're busy texting
@@vaughnreedjr6592 clearly you've never had a toddler and don't appreciate how quickly they can get away. There isn't a parent on the planet that hasn't had this happen at least once where their child got away from them, if even for a brief moment.
Not a blessing from God, but rather hard work carried out by a caring town and diligent first responders!
This child slept in a lawn mower bag? He is very smart; at 3 years old, no one has taught him survival skills, so that's impressive. I am so glad to hear he is okay.

@@y2ksurvivor Irish blood!
even toddlers have instinct
@@y2ksurvivor ok
@@SAINTxSZN ok? You got something against white people?
Funny that's not what the towns people are saying.
Boy said he was with a bear and was scared half to death when they found him.
Also not dehydrated or wet and there was no way he made it that far with people on horseback and ATVs chasing after him.
Notice the bloody nose too, didn't fall either according to the child...
This is the second toddler that disappeared that quick, gone 2.5 days, heavy weather and cold, no food or water but is found relatively unharmed and states that: I was with a bear.
Not gonna say it, do your own research and start opening your eyes. There are things going on in this world you aren't being told.
When the families say the authorities are lying, and they should know... you better get your heads out of your asses.
What an absolute miracle! The father must have been beside himself with reproach. Toddlers move very fast, and many first time parents are unaware of that. This boy was smart and lived on instinct for 2 days. It must have been so terrifying for him at that very young age, poor thing. A huge thank you to the Sheriff and police and volunteers. You were awesome!
Wanna know why he looked all scared? It's because he came across two fat people fcking in the woods
Don’t leave kids for a second! God bless him. Parents need to take heed. They get a second chance with their child!
When my son was little I never left him alone when I realized how quickly a child could disappear when you take your eyes off him/her.
Thank goodness he wasn’t taken by a weirdo.
Anyone can play perfect parents in this position just be glad it didn't happen too you If he didn't have parents who educated him he wouldn't have survived that a fact

I am so incredibly happy for the parents. I know they feared the worst but end up having a cool story to tell about their brave son.
Could u even imagine what those two days would've been like for those parents 😔
@@sophieloves7092 I really can't. I am sure the father beat himself up over and over out of guilt. The news is full of bad outcomes. It is really nice this one isn't.
His father should have never left him alone. That was so stupid.
@@QueenQofDiamonds I have a 25 yr old and a 15 yr old. They never got lost, hurt or harmed but God knows something similar could've happened to me so many times just like any other parent. In the mall, on vacation, trusting the wrong person... Personally I would never call another parent stupid for this. It's not like he went to a bar and left his kid in an overheated car for hours. Either way, I am sure he beat himself up over and over again for briefly going inside the house. So glad it turned out good!
@@QueenQofDiamonds yep, they are lucky with the outcome.
Thank the Lord he is safe continued prayers for him and his family
Thank the people who found him.
@@Emy53 you seriously think it isn’t a miracle that a 3 year old survived? And somehow knew how to do all those things like take shelter? It amazes me how blind people are to things beyond us, as humans. We aren’t the only living beings. I guarantee you that little boy will tell you angels helped him survive.
@@Amanda-Renee 😇🤍🙏🙌✨
@@Amanda-Renee yes someone was there helping that child. Though I do not think that is the same child. I think they did something to the other kid and swapped him with that child.
Renee I guess those "angels" that don't exist couldn't do anything to help the children who unfortunately didn't survive.
It's absolutely pure, sheer luck that he made it.
I did the same thing when I was three, but I was found on the same day, 3.4 miles away, at the R.O.T.C. Academy, wandering around in their cafe, looking for chow. The cops returned me to my folks and I was still hungry.
That's sad.
They should have fed you.
@Alex Xander I had a habit of wandering off. I just like adventure. But that day I got lost. I was too little to know what I was doing and didn't know how to get back. But apparently I smelled the food in the R.O.T.C. building and walked in for a bite, though I didn't get any.

My son who was younger left with the dog. My neighbor found him a few blocks away. She was driving looking for him and the rest of us were walking. She will always be my hero.
The dog was sure watching over him too.
Thank God for her! Did she decide to drive rather than walk? Or did she follow a gut feeling?
Those eyes, though. You know he's seen a few things in 2 days, I'm so glad he was found. ❤

And another thing you need to be taught is that when you refer to him in a sentence or however... It's always "God" with a capital "G" Not "god" as you say !!!!!
On a trail kids can go far. When I was a toddler I got lost for a short time at the Jersey Shore, we were on the beach and my parents just looked away a minute taking care of my baby brother. My Dad found me far down the boardwalk, they were amazed how far I had gotten in such short period of time, I was 2 years old. This was back in the early 60's. Luckily a lady had stopped and was standing with me. Those were more innocent times.
We lived in a great time.
Unfortunately many of us didn't know it then.
We live in the new world.
Now men can be women and win women's sports competition's.
Our children can't ride there bic's all day long away from home safely.
Let's try and bring some thing's back.

Amazing little guy. He will be someone great.
his eyes says it all. he looks so different from those photos.I hope he has made a full recovery
There's no doubt he was guided and protected by angels. It's truly a miracle he survived. 💖
Angels? Look at that kids face he seen some shit, this is just like the new exorcist, the girls disappears for 3 days then found hella far from where they were found, and it turns out because they were taken to hell for those 3 days.
You can tell he was frightened and in shock... Look how wide his eyes are in that ambulance picture! Poor thing 😢
Reminds me of when one of my friends "went missing" when he was 10. After a dragnet by the sheriff's department and all the neighbors he was found asleep in his family's Airstream trailer.
I'm glad this child was found safe too.
10 & 4 are a big difference I can't see no 4 year old having the knowledge to get shelter like the story is weird & how come they couldn't find him the first day an 4 year old has no sense of direction & walk way slower compared to an adult idk story ah little weird to me who doesn't know their 4 year old is missing

Yes, God certainly was. 💖✝️
There's lots of good news but the media chooses not to show us so they can keep the negativity high.
And he was not picked up by somebody and later left behind? I find it so strange that search dogs would not find a three year old who certainly soiled himself during all this time ... and dogs did not smell and hear him? STRANGE. 🤔

I swear that is not the Same kid I did some more research and the dad said he was not wearing those clothes when he went missing
I wish the news caster would let the man finish what he’s saying before asking more.
Your eyes always have to be on your baby. It only takes second with a kid that age to get into something. Glad he's safe
I remember sleeping in a bag in South Vietnam 🇻🇳 1968-1971 I survived being in a bag just a bit below ground many were gunned down during sleeping hours I made sure I was covered by ground...
First off, he did not find them, the owners of the cabin where checking on things and found the little boy in their shed. Secondly, why the hell did it take 2 hours before the police where called to report him missing? Thirdly, why was this little boy left alone for so long without supervision? Personally, I have had my own little 3 year old wander off in the woods while I was taking care of his brother. It was absolutely frightening. But once I found him he wasn't that far from the home, and was actually following his dog around :). I was blessed to find him, but still, there's some questions here that need to be answered. Thank God this little boy is safe and sound, he is such a little trooper!
Exactly thank goodness good people
I agree, sincerely! I think peoples heads and eyes are being distracted by our own little personal crystal balls, aka, cell phones! Snapping and POSTING selfies or even pics of your kiddos friends bday party, and bam, your life has passed you by look up from there, ffs!!
Imagine the vanity :
three of your kids have been gone, lost and missing, your old and grey and not too sharp anymore, and you've spent your life, neglecting everything but your own ego?! It's a No, thanks from me!
Cops don't care anymore. The government hasn't cared in a while. Sounds allot like we are just dealing with the british again
FENCED YARD is required for little kids; and DONT let men look after little kids, they just DONT SEE HOW or WHAT a kid is going to do before they do it. MOMS have this innate quality thats why they can SEE ahead of time what a kid is about to do...
I would’ve screamed so hard if i was in that cabin and i see a small child looking through the window
He looks shock. Bless him & the people who helped find him.❤️
He walked down the trail after Dad went in the house for how long?
This kid didn't hear Dad calling for him and when the volunteers were looking and calling his name nothing.
The sheriff said that we went to the playing place and he wasn't there.
Because this little boy had a lead on them.
Doesn't make sense.
How low were the windows on this cabin for a short little three year old could see in?
And how low was the door knob or if no door knob that cabin door was pretty light for him to open?
The sheriff or officer sounds really Shakey during the questions before the shed.
He accidentally said cabin and nervously said shed.
Weird
Spot on!
Omg I have a 3 year old and I can’t even imagine! His poor parents!! 😭 I’m so glad he’s safe and healthy! Poor baby 🥺. Praying for his parents, I would need to be sedated if this happened to my child. Terrifying
Same. I lost my child in Macy's for about 10 minutes once and it was the most painful experience I've ever been through. I wanted to die.
Nah i don't buy it. Something else happened to him besides the thunder and the cold nights his eyes look like he saw something or something happened
It haunts me the picture before and after the after one really doesn’t look like him nose is smaller and eyes are closer together.he went missing in the clothes he was in in the first picture second picture are not his clothes .theory is someone kept him and looked after him .maybe the people if someone did it .kept Ryker for 2 days and when the time came they needed to give him back they might of been scared of the cops and jail poor Ryker
Gotta give that kid props and his parents props (well, not for losing him obviously) but for giving him some kind of idea how to take care of himself and hide.
You don’t leave a kid under five alone PERIOD outside especially somewhere with wildlife even for a “hot minute”

@@vickie2263 Great that you are 100% perfect. But parents are still human, and it IS a fact that these little ones can be very fast. And whatever lead to this boy wandering off, I'm sure the parents take it as a lesson.
OP is right and I'm failing to see the point of these other responses 🙄 The father went *inside* the house--meaning he literally left his child outside and unattended. I don't care if it was 10 seconds, you cannot "be right back" with a 3 year old--especially with the wilderness as your backyard. He is so lucky his child was found safe and unharmed--though this little guy may have to deal with some subconscious trauma later in llife.
I am thankful to God he is ok but his father had to be in the house more than "A hot sec" for this little fellow to get that far. Parents, watch your children.
It doesn't take long for little legs but you must take your kids inside the house with you
I was thinking the same thing too. But kids can move so fast it will blow your mind. I didn't leave my kids outside. I left them upstairs on the bed with snacks watching TV while I washed dishes downstairs and then ran down to the basement to just move the load in the dryer to the basket and the load in the washer to the dryer. It was about 15 minutes total. But I foolishly thought Peppa Pig, snacks and the fact that it was 8 pm at night (though bright outside) would keep them put. I went back upstairs to an empty bedroom. Caught up to them around a corner down the road, with police.
@@ananse77 they unlocked the front door and ran outside? Do they know they’re not allowed to do that!? I hope they got put in time out for that

%100 something weird goin on there is no way a kid can do this
It feels like there is more to this story, wish Ryker could share. So blessed to be unharmed.
He had guardian angels watching over him & they kept him safe🙏🙏. This is just confirmation that God is real & that's why you' think there's more to the story, as it's unbelievable!! Yet, that's how miracles are, they are hard for the human mind to comprehend. Jesus was with Him & so He is with those who seek Him!!🙏 A wonderful scripture to read is Jeremiah 29:11-14.

Critical thinking is missing with many people when they believe what's put on the news. Lots of people don't think anymore...just believes what's told to them.
That is not the same kid. Look at the photos the kids noses are completely different. His eyes just widened??? Also, if he just went missing how would he change clothes? Wouldn’t he stay in the same clothes? And that’s a very far distance for a 3yr old to make all by himself. Not the same kid. Need dna test or something. Might be a skin walker scared for the parents
agreed
His eyes could be sunken in from no food or water and severe dehydration and shock and fear, BUT that nose is different! And on first glance my mind did question if that was the same kid.
Glory to God for keeping him save!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The kid was not alone he said he was alone When he was walking but not for a long Time and they didnt say that the was not the sale clothes he was wearing When he got missing and the didnt say that is the House was More clothes
I honestly don’t believe he walked that whole way, there are cameras spotted on trains with Ryker and the exact outfit he was wearing the day he went missing. Those clothes they found him in, his parents said he didn’t own those clothes so I believe he HAD to have been with someone. There’s just no way.
Wow, for real?? I hadn't heard any of that but it sounds crazy! I know it's been 2 months but I don't suppose you remember where you read that, do you? I'd like to check it out myself. Thanks
NO WAY, something is fishy, this little guy in no way walked 2.4 miles. The sheriff stuttered and beat around the bush. He made no sense
I agree. Things not adding up with this story.
I can almost guarantee they're still investigating.
Facts I agree, the police is so corrupted now
No. I worked in a mall Toy Store. Kids would take off and would be found completely on the other side. Two and Three-year-olds. It happened many times.
His guardian angel was with him.
I’m so happy for his family! A happy ending!
I'm so glad he's safe! I'll never understand people leaving kids alone, even for a second.
Do yoy HAVE ANY?? If you did you would understand how easy it is to not be perfect.
Shit effin HAPPENS!!!
My son is 3.5 and I couldn’t imagine this horror these parents felt. And that poor baby! What he was thinking that 2 days. I just can’t. I was fighting back the tears the entire time but as soon as the sheriff said the rescuers heard this poor baby whimpering I completely lost it! Full blown hysterically crying uncontrollably! To hear he slept in a leaf catcher bag for a lawnmower I heart breaking!
And the poor father!!! He probably beat himself up the entire time since this baby walked off when dad went in for a few minutes. Probably still is coming down hard on himself! Why did this baby do all that time in the shed? No food or water! No toys to keep my occupied! Cold. Maybe a little wet! I’m sure the thoughts he had going through his little head were horrible! Complete horror, heartbreaking and unimaginable!
Hold your babies tight tonight! I know I will.
