Diary entry, 11.06.2010, Helene Möslinger
On the 8 of June it was time to move our four dogs, Rafiki, Alika, Kilio und Maisha into the game park. From now on they can also be visited and observed by you. As soon as we let them into the enclosure they run around, played and chased each other. Furthermore they run immediately to the little pond and enjoyed a bath.
The first night I stayed with them so they are not alone in the new place and I can give them security when they get afraid by something.
The night was wonderful it was warm and the stars were clear visible. Close to the enclosure there is the enclosure of the Ibex and we, the dogs and me could here them walking on the rock. When it is night and everything is silent you can here it very good. The first time I and also the dogs got a bit shocked but already after the second time we were fine with it and also with the sounds coming from the wild boar enclosure.
We enjoyed the night and in the morning I could observe two great – spotted woodpecker inside the enclosure. The dogs stretched themselve and then they went to eat on the grass, all three on one spot. It was nice to watch.
At the same time in the old dog enclosure: the two wolf pups could now move also in this area. Wapi and Kenai enjoyed the increase of the enclosure and run around, chased each other and played together or with other things like a ball.
So in sum both the dogs and the wolves like the new places.
