denali – Sep 24, 2010 12:00 AM

Denali does not appear to have any intent on submitting to Grizzer or Maya for that matter. His behavior has become increasingly tense, constantly pawing at Grizzer until Grizzer has enough and chases him. Of course, this chasing makes Maya seek out Aidan. If we had one key to solving this tension, it would be encouraging Denali to be a 2nd ranking male. But all of our wishing will not make it happen. Grizzer needs to be more definitive in his leadership and earn some respect. Grizzer showing no dominance towards Denali and Aidan when they were young is probably contributing to this situation.
