Denali – Reverting to an Oversized Juvenile
The pup introduction started with some challenges and Denali’s overactive interactions have not made it much easier. Denali has been displaying playbow behaviors, which is described as springing up from his front haunches to invite a chase. Needless to say, a 148 pound wolf chasing around the exhibit was a bit intimidating for Grayson. We also witnessed Denali pawing at Axel’s head to invite social interaction, but the size of Denali’s paw gave Axel a bit of a pause. While Aidan maintains the maturity of a pack leader, Denali has reverted to some behaviors reminiscent of his juvenile days.
