With the addition of fish oil to Maya's daily regimen of vitamins, her coat seems to be improving. Staff have also been giving the wolves "fishcicles" (translation=frozen fish filets), which Maya seems to thoroughly enjoy. The wolves get a variety of food treats, both as enrichment and incentives, particularly when one of them is reluctant to go into the holding pen during feeding or enclosure maintenance times. During a recent Workin' For Wolves program, treats were placed in various parts of the enclosure for the wolves to find when released from the holding pen. Maya tends to be the best at finding the items, even when they are well-hidden.
