Some animals, like certain species of fish and reptiles, may exhibit aggressive behaviors to protect their young if they feel threatened, which can sometimes lead to the abandonment or harm of their offspring. However, most mammals, including humans, do not harm their babies if touched by people. Instead, they typically have protective instincts that encourage nurturing and safeguarding their young. Each species has its own unique behaviors regarding offspring care, and generalizations can be misleading.
