grizzer – Oct 31, 2012 12:00 AM

We've been having a difficult time filming Grizzer lately, he's been very social with staff and spending a lot of time with people. This scenario is great for humans and wolves alike, but difficult if you want more than 30 seconds of Youtube footage. Changes in behavior can be stimulated by seasonal changes. The other wolves who live in social groups are spending more time jaw sparring, posturing and interacting. Grizzer is doing the same thing with Oscar, but the fence separation keeps him from gaining the full effect of social contact.
