grizzer – Dec 2, 2011 12:00 AM

If we could use one Ethogram term to describe Grizzer these days, it would be "Stand Tall". This is an behavior where a wolf stands on an object and pushes the front legs to full extension. This can be interpreted as a confident, and can be viewed in threat displays, social engagement or greetings. When a wolf does this behavior alone, it can also be interpreted as that individual feeling pretty good about themselves. Grizzer has been Standing Tall on top of the den on a regular basis.
