grizzer – Jan 15, 2010 12:00 AM

Sorry for the delay in the logs, the spring semester started at Vermilion on Monday, and the Curator has a full teaching schedule on Monday and Tuesday mornings. The Priority for time at the Center was placed on the wolves, leaving other duties to wait until Friday. We will transition the logs to be posted on Friday's throughout the spring semester. Grizzer really seems to enjoy Denali's company, and their frequent social chasing and wrestling behavior has been good for Grizzer's health. He seems to have dropped some weight, and isn't nearly as stiff has he's been in previous winters. Of course, we can't weigh them now as we have a metal scale, and I'm sure you've all heard the stories of skin on cold metal. But, in spring, we expect to see a leaner, trimmer Grizzer on the scales. One other noteworthy observation is that Grizzer and Denali don't only wrestle together, they are often found sleeping together.
