Shadow has really improved in his willingness to feed on carcasses around Malik. This is an odd relationship, where Shadow is dominant in every other encounter except food. Normally, if Malik is around, it only takes a lip curl from Malik and Shadow backs off. This behavior resulted in a change in feeding protocol for the retired pack over the last year. But, with Shadow successfully possessing beaver carcasses and deer legs, we may be ready to start with some larger feedings. For Saturday's feeding, we have a deer torso thawed and we will see how Shadow and Malik interact.
