I just want to respond further to your questions about whether or not this behavior is territorial behavior. It is not likely that. Uros exhibit territorial behavior toward other uros. This behavior toward you is fear. You are an unknown to him/her and a possible threat. The only way to minimize that fear is as we have said, make the environment stable, ie, proper temps, terrain, and food, and then familiarity/ normalcy.


Good luck!
