I realize that. The animal was kept in an enclosure far too small and did not socialized at all. However when talking about mamono we're talking about a race not a specific individual, and I wanted the Indominus race to follow the same lines and that requires the insanity to be caused by factors common to all members of the species, not something in an individuals upbringing. The clashing instincts between raptors and tyrannosaurs makes sense. Raptor are small predators in a world full of big prey and bigger predators. The pack is absolutely essential for their survival, thus their instinct to stay in a pack wpuld be very strong. Tyrannosaurs on the other hand are massive predators and there's only so much prey in a certain area. In order to keep itself with a steady supply of food, Tyrannosaurs would have needed to be intensely territorial. Those two instincts clashing would cause insanity in the hybrid. I all like to assume that intelligent hunters like raptors would also tend to be somewhat playful, not unlike a cat. Meanwhile tyrannosaurs would have specialized in hunting armored prey that usually fought back, resulting in the Tyrannosaur having to be much more aggressive. C9mbining the predatory playfulness of a raptor and the fighting spirit of the tyrannosaur would result in an animal that is extremely aggressive and willing to bring down large dangerous game entirely for the fun of it.

That's mostly just me reading between the lines and making stuff convenient for the creation of the mamono.
