denali – Feb 22, 2013 12:00 AM

Denali has been on the receiving end of some dominance. Most of it is stimulated by Denali wrestling with the pups and Aidan putting an end to it. These are increasing in intensity as indicated by the tucked tail and hackles on Denali, but they are short-lived. Biologists theorize that these short dominance displays clearly identify a rank order and can actually prevent more intense struggles in the pack hierarchy and provides leadership when the pack needs the support.
