maya – May 11, 2009 12:00 AM

Maya and Grizzer were 5 years old on May 5th, and received their annual rabies and parvo vaccination. (Malik and Shadow are no longer receiving Parvo vaccinations, any wolf over 8 years of age only receives the Rabies vaccination). Maya was her dominant self, growling at both Curator, Lori Schmidt, and Assistant Curator, Donna Prichard when her vaccinations were given. She has also been spending a fair amount of time pair bonding with Adian, which has been a bit confusing for Aidan. She still pair bonds with Shadow, which makes her behavior with Aidan a bit confusing to interpret. There is no doubt that Aidan seems to watch and learn from the other wolves, this could be a learned behavior from Shadow.
