Why are fights between two female dogs so fucking vicious? When male dogs fight, it's generally over the pecking order. However, when two females fight, it seems it's because one of both of them want the other dead.
Does they really want to kill each other, and if so, why? How does this benefit the species? If that's not the reason, why the brutality?
FvF dog fights cause more injuries and fatalities than any other match up. It boggles my mind.

I dunno, when MvM fight, it generally gets pretty gory. Especially when pit bulls from shitty owners are involved.

>Researchers [...] recruited 38 pairs of dogs that came to [a local animal behavior clinic] specifically because they were involved in aggressive incidents with their housemates.
>Only 32 percent of the aggressive incidents involved conflict between two males, while in the remaining 68 percent females were active participants.
>This is consistent with some previous research which has shown that when females get into an aggressive situation, injuries are apt to be more severe and the fight tends to be longer and more furious.
