lucas – Jul 2, 2005 12:00 AM

This has been a busy week for the wolf care staff with the ethology class, hence the delay in updating the wolf logs. Lucas, with the help of daily brushing from the wolf care staff, has almost shed his undercoat. This is important with the arrival of warmer weather temperatures. Summer weather also means more black flies and fly ointment treatment for the wolves in order to protect their ears and legs from the fly bites. Lucas often seeks the shelter of his den box during the day, but will sometimes come out to greet wolf care staff at the fence or to drink at the small pond.
