grizzer – Oct 19, 2009 12:00 AM

Grizzer's interactions with Malik have decreased with the reduced construction noise and traffic. There is much less physical conflict, but the body postures and eye contact still continues. The key to this relationship is how much testing Grizzer receives from Denali, and how much opportunity Malik takes to get a few bites on Grizzer. So far, Malik has reduced his growling and anxious involvement in Grizzer and Denali's interactions, possibly because Denali's testing is getting more serious.
