Yearling ironspines are the size of foxes or coyotes, and range from twenty to eighty pounds in weight. They rapidly grow until they reach juvenile status. They are large enough to hunt a wide range of creatures, but not so large as to escape predation. Although some wander off to hunt on their own, siblings often stay together to defend a territory and to defend against larger predators. Yearling ironspines will also move in to take the kill from other predators, or claim carrion from the vultures.
