Shifty has been known to betray Lifty at some points, as seen in Milkin' It when Shifty threw Lifty out of a hot air balloon as not to get caught by a power line. Like most siblings, Shifty argues with his brother about who is at fault it is when something goes wrong, but when trouble is afoot, they work together. They also have a trademark evil snicker (usually a different one for later episodes). Despite the smirks on their faces, they almost always end up dying in the episodes in which they appear. Shifty has a tendency to abandon his brother.Īlthough they have the same gender, appearance, and personality, Shifty wears a fedora and often bosses Lifty around. They probably rob Lumpy so frequently because his lack of intelligence and common sense makes him an easy target and how Lumpy is shown to be quite wealthy. They mostly steal from Lumpy (in Meat Me for Lunch they steal meat from Lumpy's deli mart, in Milkin' It they steal a cow from Lumpy's farm, in Concrete Solution they steal his wallet, and in Junk in the Trunk they abduct his pet elephant). They also hunt for treasure, ransack houses, or do anything to get rich quick. They frequently steal merchandise and produce from the other Happy Tree Friends (thus their names). Shifty and his brother Lifty are two green kleptomaniac raccoon identical twin brothers with dark green mask-like markings around their eyes.
