lakota – Feb 13, 2006 12:00 AM

Lakota was feeling and looking a bit off late last week, although she took her meds everday and showed no loss of appetite. The curator asked all staff to monitor her closely for any other symptoms. Today during wolf care, she was very active and seemed to be fine, but as with all the retired wolves, staff will be very diligent on checking on their status. With the colder weather predicted for the end ot fhe week, Beaver carcasses are being thawed for all the wolves. Beaver have a higher fat content than deer and will offer a few more calories during the return of normal Northern Minnesota winter weather – 30 below zero.
