Aidan continues to be a bit of a challenge for some of our staff. With certain individuals, he is completely relaxed, for others, the construction seemed to have triggered some negative conditioning and he has shown some aggressive behavior to a few individuals. Socialized wolves can be far more dangerous than wolves who have not been bottle fed and handled at a young age. We will keep analyzing this situation and trying to determine the best course of action to help him gain trust of some staff. This is the reason why we don't have an open access policy to the wolf enclosures and why it is very rare that people join wolf care. Aidan also helped identify a leak in the concrete pond. This will be on the list of things to do for the Fall Working for Wolves… for those of you registered, the list is growing daily.
