Subject: RE: BS: Eagle Nest and Hatching
No time to watch the last couple days so I have not seen the "bullying". However, the two raccoon kits we raised last summer wrestled all the time - just like kids. Sometimes an ear would get bitten too hard and there would be a shriek but they were always best of friends. We figured it helped them know the moves if they were really attacked. Sure enough, the smaller one survived a vicious attack. We believe the larger, more aggressive kit must have succumbed as he never came back to home base. Interesting.
