Diary entry, 21.12.2009, guest
My name is Barbara and today it is the first time for me to write this blog. I just started my master thesis at the WSC and during the next months I will spend a lot of time here in Ernstbrunn.
Today the wolves participated at some tests again, where they had the possibility to proove their skills. It was freezing cold and this is why Bea, Zsofi and Frederike were glad to make the tests inside in the testing room and not outside in the enclosure. But not only the researchers were freezing, also the filmteam which visited the wolves had difficulties coping with the frost. They even needed a break for the camera to warm up.
There was no walk today but we made it up to the animals by giving them a huge amount of fresh meat which they enjoyed a lot. It was fascinating to see that most of the animals stayed together in a pack even though they could disperse. Again the feeding was very peaceful and only Nanuk and Tatonga chose to eat on their own. After this big meal it became calm in the enclosure and the pack preferred to rest for the remaining afternoon.
