This log written by Working for Wolves Participant: Andi Nelsen During enclosure enrichment, Mac and her siblings were locked in a seperate enclosure. Den boxes were power washed, the pond drained, cleaned and refilled. Straw was removed and grass seed and cedar chips were added. During the process, Mac started out anxious, but eventually relaxed and took a nap under one of the pine trees. Eventually she and Shadow started showing signs of displeasure (growling and some baring of teeth). Upon returning the the enclosure, Mac immediately went to check her spot in the corner where freshed cedar chips had been placed. Later, Lucas had moved into her spot, so fresh cedar chips were reintroduced to the den boxes so Lucas to have a place to relax.
