Yes, a child can be diagnosed both with Autism Spectrum Disorder and a learning disability too. In fact Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is considered a 'cousin' to Autism Spectrum Disorder and is often comorbid with Autism.

Feral children may act similar to severally autistic children, but the conditions are different. Autism is caused by genetics, feralism is caused by extreme neglect, so feral children are technically not autistic, though I've seen theories that say only autistic children are capable of figuring out on how to live in the wild, and therefor all feral would be autistic.

Does gymnastics help an autistic child?

I wouldn't reccomend it. I have a severly autistic cousin. autistic children tend not to listen to instruction very well. I'de be afraid that the child would get hurt. Try either horse-back riding or music. They are many places where disabled children can ride and it really makes them happy and its safe. My cousin love smusic though. He connects with it very well and it helps him understand things better.
