Luna’s Feeling Good

Luna definitely gives visitors a glimpse of the social side of wolf behavior.  In this week’s photo, she springs up from a play bow inviting any and all wolves to chase her.  These interactions are becoming more frequent as the weather turns cooler.  Luna is also displaying the classic “Canine Grin” on her face.  Wolves are very expressive and interactions can start from a mere glance between individuals.  Observing wolves requires a keen sense of awareness, noting the subtle responses that may stimulate behavior.
