Malik, an Arctic subspecies of the gray wolf, was born May 8, 2000 and is a brother to Shadow. Malik is very curious wolf that shows little intimidation with strangers. He's described as easy-going by the wolf care staff and can be easily distracted by just about anything. Malik was placed in the Retired Pack in November 2009.
For each wolf, you will see a weekly photo, notes on behavior or physical health and a video clip. Please note, due to the large file size of the video clips, they will only be archived for 30 days.

Lori Schmidt - Malik continues to benefit from Shadow's daily feedings, either directly stealing food from Shadow, taking his caches, or getting some tidbits from wolf care staff as a distraction. What Malik doesn't like is wind, and as the fall weather arrives, it includes, cool, rainy and windy days. Malik is nervous about wind, and especially trees swaying in the breeze. In recent weeks, we have been reviewing old photos and thought we would share this picture of Malik as a 7-week old pup.
