| One point we should remember: they are not domesticated, but they are wildlife that is, probably, not so fierce. So, it will never be really tamed like in taming a dog. However, you may make them feel confident with your presence and comfortable being held by human. The unexpected stressful experience during the escape may make him loss his confidence on human. Be patient and take time to be with him, gradually increase the contact and don't ever let him escapde or to experience any stressful events. Once he has regained his confidence with you, then he will be fine again. |
