Shadow seems to be having a great winter. Not only does he enjoy the snow by pushing his nose in the fresh fallen snow doing a behavior we call the snowplow, but he frequently grabs hides, sticks or bones and throws them up in the air for Grizzer or Maya to chase. He's been great with staff and seems to be doing better with Behind the Scenes groups, displaying less bark howling. Overall, he portrays a great dominant male. Of course, Malik may have a different opinion, but for all the arctic wolf posturing with each other for position, I still seem the sleeping together on the straw beds on top of the den.
