 Natural Human Language [encyclopedia]
Most of this theory was built around the "Wild Boy of Aveyron" who was found in the forests of southern France in 1797.
The critical period ends when the bird develops a sense of fear of strange objects, which is probably the reason why the end of the critical period can be extended by dosing young birds with tranquillisers.
There seems to be no good reason why the Aveyron boy (or any other child) should have passed the end of the critical period at this age, but standard wisdom has always been that the peak age for learning verbal communication is at about age six, and drops off after that age.

Finally, Victor, now famed as the "wild boy of Aveyron," came under the care of a sympathetic young doctor who concluded that Victor was in fact an abandoned deaf-mute, intelligent but forlorn, who had somehow been able to survive on his own.
Dismissed in a contemporary encyclopedia as "half wild" and "incapable of learning to speak in spite of all efforts to teach him," Victor was eventually forgotten.
These principles were intended to give the boy the ability to respond to other people, to train his senses, to extend his physical and social needs, to teach him to speak, and to teach him to think and reason logically.

He carefully identifies the main mistakes made by Itard with the wild boy : he did not emphasize enough the capabilities of the wild boy when he was captured and he de-socialized him by not integrating him in a social group of his peers and in society at large.
In the book The Wild Boy of Aveyron Harlan Lane does a wonderful job of combining the story of a wild boy, historic context, growth of deaf-mute education, and the techniques of Itard, the wild boys teacher, into an enthralling and captivating novel.
The book has a philosophical twist ; many prominenet philosophers are qouted and the difference between man and animal is discussed in depth in a rather interesting narrative which makes use of outseide sources and examples.
