In Yanagida Kunio's The Life Among The Mountains, there's an account that in some period, people in some regions left their newborns with long hair, teeth or both of them among bough or deserted road near their village, believing they were not among them. Even I could find a suggestion in other book which tells that as a matter of fact, the parents tended to arrange foster parents for their newborns considered as a supernatural existence so they can keep living even after their separation, it's quite interesting and let us consider where they, or we, might be connected and who they/we are, imagining if there was no arrangement, those babies would be eaten by wild lives. It also associates me that how many lives as foods are dumped today.
