Shadow is getting better with Nannies in the wolf yard, but we did have to alter protocol a bit. To those Nannies who are scheduled to come, the itinerary called for a closing BBQ in the wolf yard, to celebrate a week or weekend of pup work, but unfortunately, Shadow is not so willing to have this kind of activity in the yard, and wolf care staff are stretched so thin, it was a challenge to spare the staff time away from other duties, especially since Lakota needs extra staff time for social interaction. So, nannies will need to do a wrap-up with left over pizza. It is critical that Shadow remains calm and does not get agitated at all this summer, for concern that there's redirection towards the pups. Week # 10 of the Nanny team was carefully chosen to have his most favorite people in the wolf yard. In this week's picture, Shadow is eating from a deer carcass. This is a noteable change from previous summers, it might be the influence of prolactin.
