pretty typical for jungles, keep handling and push through, it may come good. some dont.
usually athertons are pretty good in terms of temprement

My Atherton is only 5 months old so he probably looks very similar to yours. He hadn't been handled at all when I got him and used me as a chew toy. But he hasn't drawn blood in a month or more and is a lot more relaxed when handled. Still not as friendly as my Childrens but it has been used to a lot of human contact and is older. I can tell (sort of) that this boy will get better and better as he ages. I've attached a couple of pics anyway.
