grizzer – Mar 25, 2007 12:00 AM

Grizzer is developing a mature howl, as his video shows him matching Shadow’s pitch. The subtle communication among wolves is interesting to watch. In this week’s photo, you will see both Grizzer and Maya avert their eyes from a threat display by Malik. Avoiding eye contact avoids conflict, and wolves seem to prefer to avoid conflict than constantly push each other around. It’s been a great experience watching Grizzer and Maya mature.
