ENERGY LEVEL: Manute displays a low activity level in the care center. RECOMMENDATIONS: Experienced adopter, adult-only home _X_No children (under 13): Due to how uncomfortable Manute is currently with touch and novel stimuli, in addition to his bite history, we feel that an adult-only home would be most beneficial at this time. Potential challenges: _X_Resource guarding: Manute is reported to growl and snap over food. He should be left alone while eating, and should be taught the cue “drop” and other trade up games so Manute learns that dropping food or having people around while he is eating is rewarding.
