Written by Planning For Pups Program participants Dena Arntzen and Lauren Parker: Before Saturday's enclosure enrichment program, Aidan and Shadow shared a bonding moment on top of the den. The enrichment program brought a great deal of excitement to most of the pack, especially the yearlings. Aidan had great success! He fished beaver feet popsicles out of the pond searched all around the enclosure for other tasty surprises. After everything was eaten, Aidan continued to search, especially in locations where he had success during the program. This activity of going back to the same locations shows a complexity in his cognitive process.; he is able to associate those locations with the presence of food.
