The daily routine of vitamins to all wolves now includes Cosequin to Mackenzie as a nutritional supplement to hopefully provide relief to her sore hips during the winter season. Lakota spent the day in the den eating a beaver; the yearlings were given a frozen fish to act as a distraction to keep them from overly asserting their rank order status over Lakota. Malik was observed raise leg urinating, a behavior generally reserved for alpha males in the wild, but may be exhibited by subordinate males in captivity, where scent marking their territory is not as critical as it would be in the wild."
