No. Siblings will stay together. Mother and young will stay together until the young are full grown. Sometimes adult males will partner up and stay together outside breeding season. Fathers stay with the mothers long enough to do the deed and split.

Post by: boneaddict on October 17, 2010, 07:49:24 AM: I think Mom was there with last years pups (there were three total last year) along with this years pups(total of 5). You'll note the one teeth shot, the teeth are worn down on her a bit. The two sibs from last year were constantly together, and so were the younger two. The five were only together in short spurts.

Definitely. My best year in the 90s I caught 73, 60 day season at the time. Price is about a third of what it was then.
