|---|
While traveling with his family, a young Bobo (Mandel) is thrown from a sleigh unknowingly by his parents and is forced to live in the wilderness with a pack of wolves.
Twenty years later, an animal behaviorist is out studying wolves and she happens to stumble across Bobo. Intrigued, she takes him back to the city to teach him how to readjust to life with humans.
Later she learns that Bobo is the long-missing heir to $30 million. His sudden reappearance causes his low-life brother Reggie (Lloyd) to do everything he can to keep Bobo from becoming civilized and claiming his rightful fortune.
