MacKenzie is responding to the medication, she is still weak in the hind quarters, but is moving around the enclosure and willingly coming to the fence for meatballs. She ate 2 lbs of warmed meat mix last night and another 1.5 lbs this morning. She and Lakota both slept together in the full bale of straw in the corner of the enclosure. This seems to indicate that is was not a spinal stroke, but some type of acute spinal injury, such as a pinched nerve or disc problem. The webcams are back on for now, but if her condition declines, we will again give this pack some privacy and turn off the webcam.
