grizzer – Jun 29, 2009 12:00 AM

Written by "Pups at One Year" program participants Lisa Honey and Leslie Kemling: This weeks photo shows Grizzer paying respect to a relaxed and accepting Shadow. Grizzer continues to maintain his status as second ranking male exhibiting intimidation behaviors towards Malik such as following him around the enclosure. Enclosure enrichment programs serve the purpose of creating additional stimulation for the pack. Saturday's enrichment program provided various melons for the wolves. Each melon had a core removed, small bits of sausages were stuffed into the center and the core replaced. Grizzer seemed to enjoy the beef sticks that were placed in the melon. This weeks video shows his continued assertion of status as second ranking male by displaying intimidation behaviors toward Malik.
