In this week’s video, you will see Malik showing a defensive threat display, while Shadow stays back in higher tail posture. The one observation we notice is that when Grizzer is dominating Shadow, Malik jumps in to take a grab bite, but when Grizzer and Malik are interacting, Shadow doesn’t usually go after Malik. It’s an interesting dynamic between the littermates, which is why we our pup plans always include at least two pups. The social interactions of wolves for status are critical to the wild, and are a strong instinct in captivity. This behavior truly defines the wolf pack structure.
