shadow – Feb 1, 2013 12:00 AM

As we reported in Malik's log, they both caught a bug of some type, but Shadow seems to be taking longer to recover. He did finally eat about 5 lbs of beef yesterday and we hope he returns back to his chin resting, invite chasing self soon. These wolves will both turn 13 years of age in May, and at this age, any issue is a major concern. I do believe that Shadow, as the dominant leader of the Exhibit Pack for nearly 8 years, probably has more underlying health issue related to stress. Staff have increased their observation periods and we anticipate an improvement by the weekend.
