Human Interaction Having to rely on Human-Provided food sources- They do not learn essential foraging skills or the skills needed to survive in the wild. When in contact with people, they slowly become comfortable with them, and lose their fear towards them. People mistake this for aggression and they are killed or injured for this reason. An instinctive wariness of people is extremely important. Nicole
