nyssa – Jul 24, 2004 12:00 AM

Today Nyssa is 73 days old. She greeted staff very well as she readily rolled over and gave staff lots of facial licking. During a special pup program in the wolf yard Nyssa was very confortable around unfamilar faces. Throughout the duration of the program she chewed on a deer ear except for several occasions where she played with her littermates underneath the bleachers. Nyssa has been showing very aggressive behavior when it comes to defending her food sources. Staff has to very cautious when trying to handle Nyssa when she's chewing on a toy or feeding.
