Yes they will. We own a cottage in the Upper Ottawa Valley, not far from Algonquin Park in central Ontario, and watched last weekend as two chipmunks waged a vicious battle on the ledge of a high rockface that rises just beyond our cottage deck.
After several minutes of thrashing and squeaking, one of the combatants, fatigued and disabled, slid thirty feet down the rock face, unceremoniously landing on the ground, near death. His adversary chased him all the way down the rock to administer a few more decisive bites, before continuing on his merry way.
It was quite horrible to watch. The "loser" continued squeaking and weakly kicking his left hind leg for several minutes, then seemed to bury himself under a pile of leaves. He died later in the afternoon.
I assume it was a territorial fight over a food cache. Chipmunks spend most of their time alone, gathering nuts and seeds to store for winter. Invading chips sometimes try to plunder another chip's stash, which is how the fighting starts. Still, I'm 53 years old and have NEVER seen a chipmunk kill another chipmunk until last weekend.
What else can I help you with?
Would a lion attack another lion?
Yes, but mostly males. Males attack each other unusually to take over another males pride. Also, when new males take over the pride they kill the cubs for the females to reproduce them. Also, males fight over females. Also females attack males and other females to steal meals or just to show off. so that's why lions do attack other lions or lionesses.
