Aidan continues to be very needy with wolf care staff. He clings like glue and guards defensively when Denali approaches. This diminishes with time in the enclosure, but reoccurs every time wolf care staff enter. His social behavior with Denali is increasing, with several play bows and wrestling bouts on the den sites. They have started sleeping near each other again, with Denali on the top of the slate den, and Aidan at the opening. The pond has been a source of interest, as the temperatures have cooled again to below zero mornings, the pond melt water has frozen solid, creating an ice rink for the wolves to investigate.
