Meds to all, Shadow continues to hesitate when going into the pack holding area, but comes as soon as the vitamin/meatball bowl appears. This is important for the wolves to willingly go into a smaller holding pen for veterinary treatment and facilities maintenance. Sometime during the past winter, Shadow may have had a negative experience with the enclosure, causing this hesitation. When working with wolves, staff must always be mindful of negative conditioning.
