Advance Apparatus Were Used to Locate Her but She’s Nowhere to be Found

The government helped find Karina by using radar, overhead surveillance and droves but failed to find her.

When the dog sensed that Karina was already having a hard time enduring the condition, the dog tried hard to find his way back to the village to ask for help.

The family and everybody looking for her were so worried but when the dog came back to their village without Karina, everybody became more fearful. They felt as if the chances of finding her alive are very low. As the dog was seen in the village, it ran back to the woods as if it was telling them to follow him. So they followed the dog, hoping to find the little girl even if it seemed impossible.

“When her dog came back we thought ‘that’s it’ – even if she was alive – and chances were slim – now she would have definitely have lost all hopes. Our hearts truly and deeply sank.”, said Afanasiy Nikolayev, spokesman for the Sakha Republic Rescue Service.

Thanks to Karina’s dog for showing her family, villagers and the operation soldiers where Karina is. They found this poor little girl very dirty and smelly hiding in the grass.
