Shadow continues to earn the pups respect, and they are frequently showing submissive postures to him. This is true of Grizzer and on occasion, Maya. Malik doesn't interact with Shadow in a submissive posture, probably because it would show vulnerability in front of Grizzer. Shadow continues to be intimidated by strangers in the wolf yard, and staff are aware that any vulnerabilities for Shadow can affect his status. Behind the Scenes programs don't begin until May, so usually, he is less sensitive during the summer season.
