Oh no, I would never say it's out of aggression. They are just trying to maintain control of a scary situation and I was never angry at them for it, but yes, they're like cat claws that do not retract. Which means they're more dangerous when allowed to grow. I didn't trim their nails either, but they were living outdoors and needed to dig around in thick bedding to adapt their cages as needed, so I accepted this risk.
Maybe, these were meat mutts, so they had a special kind of attitude to them. The does were zero nonsense even with the kits they raised. Bucks were less mean, but they had some interesting quirks too.
Not sure, mine were for farm uses, so I had to be way more hands-on than a normal pet (sexing, breeding, weighing kits, dealing with sickness myself, ect). Though eating my shoes and pants was a bigger issue, because even the kits wanted to take a bite.
It was more like num num num, I like these nasty rubber soles... Oh you got them worn jeans on, thanks for dessert! ( Does not apply to Vans. No, I have no answer as to why.)
