As many fathers know, deciding what name to give your child can be a stressful one, especially if father and mother don't agree.
But thanks to Bloomington's Miller Park Zoo, one lucky dad and mom are off the hook.
Bruiser and Kai are stars of the zoo's red wolf exhibit. Kai, the mother, gave birth to four red wolf cubs in April.
From now through July 5th, the zoo is letting the public choose their names.
Zookeepers say Bruiser has transitioned into his new role as a dad nicely.
"For the first couple weeks, Mom chased him away. She wouldn't let him anywhere near the pups, but when he started getting closer and coming out, he's been really attentive. He lets them kind of play around him, doesn't snap at them, doesn't get aggressive at all," said Erik Heinonen.
Voting on names for the pups is taking place in the zoo giftshop where you can choose from four sets of names.
The cost to cast a ballot is a donation of any size, the proceeds of which will go Red Wolf conservation work.
