The pups are starting to be more active in the adult dominance rank order. Aidan is clearly more serious about the interactions, taking the lead from Shadow and Grizzer. He is quick and intense, requiring more distractions than Denali. Wolf care staff will be developing a list of distractions to keep the pups occupied. These may include hides, food resources, non-toxic and hardy items on which they can practice their predatory skills, even a cardboard box will allow them to vent some behavior and reduce their tendency to make Grizzer into a chew toy.
