Keta (F)

Born
: 08/14/2004
Weight: 53 lbs
Salmon Litter

Keta is the smallest and sweetest of the salmon litter. However, in terms of leadership qualities, she keeps up with and sometimes surpasses her big brothers. She has become one of the kennel's main winter leaders due to her intelligence, diligence and eagerness to please. Keta is mom to the 2010 additions to the kennels, having given birth to Sitken, Lucor and Mixtus (the bumblebee litter) in August of that year.

This slump occurred as underlying permafrost melted

Did You Know?
Warmer temperatures have led to dramatic thawing of permafrost. Thaw releases carbon, as once-frozen materials decompose, but allows increased plant growth. Researchers in Denali are studying whether thawing permafrost will increase or decrease world-wide carbon emissions.
