Curious George
Yearling male
Relation
Likely offspring of Luna and Romulus. Brother of Scruffy.
Age
Yearling (born in 2013)
Description
• Very long guard hairs on ruff between saddle and neck
• Much smaller than the adult males, but similar size to Atka
• Lighter in colour than Scruffy, but darker than the adults
Behaviour
• Typical yearling: inquisitive, playful, excitedly submissive to the breeding pair (Luna and Romulus). Eager, but not bold/brave
• Seeks out reassurance from both breeding adults
• Gets bored and restless after sleeping for too many hours. But when he sleeps, he is totally sacked out and seems dead to the world
• Goes along with the program and is always eager to follow Romulus' lead for hunting, returning to den, etc.
• Acts like the eldest son because he will play with abandon, but is always eager to step into line and make Mum and Dad proud
• He earned his name by being interested in checking out us and our camp. He will investigate our activities, but is never brave enough to approach if he is by himself.
