lakota – Jun 23, 2002 12:00 AM

The plan to reintroduce Lakota back to the pack was implemented. First on the plan, was to place Malik in the holding pen with Lakota to see if there was any aggression. This went well with Lakota initially playbowing to Malik, but then later Malik stood over Lakota forcing her to submit. Lakota then retreated to the straw bed in the holding area. She was very defensive over her food cache and guarded it without trouble. Student enrolled in Vermilion's Wolf Ethology course spent the night monitoring the interaction in the pen.
