Malik has been displaying some very juvenile behavior lately, which would be fine if he was a juvenile, but he is approaching 13 years of age. His juvenile behavior relates to his tendency to take possessions from the staff's head, pockets, hands and hair. His latest obsession is any staff member wearing a hair band; unfortunately while it's still attached to human hair. I experienced this first hand yesterday and while allowing Malik to floss with my hair may have been exciting for him, it's not a habit I want for wolf care. This experience is just a reminder that wolves are opportunistic and no matter what the age, don't become complacent.
