Sisters, aged 8 and 5, who vanished into bear-infested woods in California found alive two days later

The Carrico sisters were asked by their mother not to go into the woods but the little girls stocked up on snacks and went anyway and as a result lost their way.
UPDATED MAR 4, 2019

Two little sisters, aged five and eight, disappeared from their home after they walked into the bear-infested woods nearby. However, the young sisters were miraculously found alive all thanks to their great survival skills training. They were missing for almost 44 hours. 

The children, 8-year-old Leia Carrico and her 5-year-old sister Caroline Carrico had last been seen outside of their home which is located in Benbow, just northwest of Sacramento on Friday at around 2.30 pm. The Carrico sisters disappeared into the woods in the Northen California wilderness as police and volunteers launched huge search parties to try and locate the whereabouts of the girls.
