Malik was gnawing on the remainder of their last deer carcass fed a week ago. He continues to use the fresh straw as a caching site, and frequently carries the vertebrae throughout the enclosure. The benefit of feeding carcasses is that the time spent chewing on bones helps reduce tartar build up. We are starting to get some warm days, and with 12 year old bones, the arctics typically soak up the warmth of the sun on the top of the den.
