shadow – Feb 14, 2004 12:00 AM

Curator Lori Schmidt spent some time in the enclosure this afternoon to assess the dominance issues between all wolves and conduct physical and behavioral assessments. Shadow was extremely excited to spend time with her and became very dominant toward Malik if he approached Lori. Shadow rolled over in a submissive posture several times in front of Lori and spent most of the time with her. Both arctics were in good physical condition, and were fairing the colder weather well.
