I have heard, but cannot validate, that some zoos and
wildlife preserves administer passification enhancers like
salt peter and female hormones to control aggression.
This may account for the confused behaviors documented by NG.

Comparing animals to humans, I'd say we're going to the dogs. To quote that famous modern philosopher, Forrest Gump, "That's all I have to say about that."

I may have confused my above quote with a reference to Lieutenant Dan and ice cream, but I'll stick by the original quotation.

Could be...but many times these behaviors are observed in the wild, too.
