Intern Adrienne W. wrote: Mackenzie showed a lot of submissive behavior Sunday morning. Between 8 and 8:15 am, she had her tails so far between her legs it was to her stomach, Lakota style (Lakota is the omega – bottom ranking pack member). Both yearlings were close to her at that time and all wolves were concentrated between the den and the pond. Later that same morning, Jen (Westlund) and I tried to get Mac to come over to the holding pens for her Cosequin, and although we were both calling her, she was reluctant to come over. Probably since the yearlings were held there. Jen had to go over to the den area to give Mac her pill. Another observation was that the wolves had at least two longish howling sessions around this time lasting 5-10 minutes each.
