Aidan has had a noticeable change in behaviors, acting far more submissive towards Denali. This week's YouTube footage shows several minutes of Aidan passively submitting. Aidan still dominates a significant amount of wolf care time, but the intensity of his guarding behavior has diminished. As spring approaches, it will be important to provide good stimuli to engage the wolves in activity. With the pond drain thawing this week, we should be able to get the pond cleaned and filled by the last week of April. With daytime temperatures nearing 50 degrees this week, it may seem cool for a human, but a full coat of guard hairs makes 50 degrees warm for a wolf.
