Why was Victor the wild boy of Aveyron not house trained?
Alyssamcintosh908
Some reports say the reason why Victor was not toilet trained and relieved himself wherever he was (indoors or outdoors) was because of living the life of as an animal for many years unknown to civilization.

How did people believe Victor the Wild Boy of Aveyron was deaf?
Although Victor could hear, he was sent to the National Institute for Deaf-Mutes in Paris. It was reported he never reacted to certain sounds and speech. Itard soon found out Victor was not deaf, and some sounds had no meaning to him. And he possibly couldn't understand speech because of being isolated in the wild for so many years.

Why did Itard stop working with Victor the Wild Boy?
Itard had worked with Victor the Wild Boy of Aveyron for five years. His main goal was to get Victor to speak, but according to all the steps he tried teaching Victor, Victor remained mute. Although Victor made progress with his other educations and basics he was taught by Itard. Itard somehow found out later on that Victor could've been in a way mentally disabled and that possibly could've caused his silence. Victor was in adolescence when he was captured and brought to Paris and taken in by Itard-and Itard later realized that a child must learn how to speak before reaching puberty (adolescence). Because if an adolescent had lack of human speech it would be impossible to teach them speech.
Was Victor the wild boy of Aveyron deaf?
There are many cases that people believed he was because he never responded to certain sounds and never spoke. But once after living in the care of Itard, Victor learned to understand words, tones of voices and Itard pointed out Victor was not deaf. He will always turn his head whenever he hears a vowel sound "oh". Itard gave him the name Victor. It was clear Victor can hear but just made no reaction to certain sounds-he did not understand speech in his early captivity. That assumes Victor was abandoned from human society from his early childhood.

When was Victor the wild boy of Aveyron found?
Victor (known as the Savage of Aveyron) was actually first spotted in the woods above a village of LaCaune France between 1797 & 1798 then was captured briefly and escaped. He was captured again in 1799 and brought back to the same village and housed by an old widow and fled to the mountains and was sighted in a small village of Tarn. On January 8, 1800 in the middle of winter, he emerged from the woods on his own-then came to a field in the outskirts of a town called Saint Sernin and was found by a man named Vidal-this time he no longer could escape from his capture. He wasn't entirely naked as he was when he was first spotted (he had shreds of shirt hanging around his neck or was found in a tattered gown).
