Shadow ha really shown an improvement in his feeding behavior. When he was first moved to retirement, he was very timid about feeding, which created some intense guarding behavior from Malik. As winter approaches and we are feeding larger quantities of food, we see much more confidence. I know this surprises people because Shadow is so confident in all other interactions, but in wolf social rules, food possession doesn't always correlate with status.
