MacKenzie discovered that a woodchuck entered their enclosure and had taken residence under one of the denboxes. The woodchuck was doing a whistling call that increased the digging activity around the denbox. The woodchuck spent the night and by mid-day of the following day, scurried across the enclosure and scaled the fence. Mac was fast on his heels, but missed his tail by an inch as he scaled to safety at the top of the fence. Wolf Curator, Lori Schmidt, helped the woodchuck off the fence and he scurried away under the secondary security fence to freedom in the woods. It doesn't appear that the woodchuck was too negatively conditioned, as he showed up in the garage a day later.
