Growing solitary animals as a pack

241 viewsBiologyOther

Let’s say a person adopts a solitary animal, like a tiger or a polar bear, idk.

If they raise them as their family:

Once the animal gives birth to offspring, would the animals teach their offspring to be in a pack? Or would the offspring follow their natural instincts and end up leaving them in the end?

I don’t know if it makes sense, but the question does in my head

I know cotton top tamarin need to learn to be good parents from their parents, but I was taught that fact as an example of something novel about them. Which is to say most animals don’t learn their parenting skills; they are innate.
