It's been told that there are cannibalistic gray squirrels out there, just as there are the same among hamsters, rats, gerbils, and cats when their babies are threatened. If a mama squirrel comes upon another ones baby, she might run away(afraid that the baby's mama will attack her)or she might kill and eat the baby to prevent it from being a threat to her babies(1 less squirrel, more food for her babies). Male squirrels during mating season will violently fight other males, to where fur and layers of skin or ripped off. If the wounds don't get infected or they are not too severe the wounded squirrel could survive.
