Fierce reputation
Wally's real life
family and friends
THE WOLVERINE IS A FEISTY CRITTER. The western Blackfeet tribe called this redoubtable beast a “skunk bear” and other nicknames include “carcajou” and “quickhatch”... But NOT “wolf”!
A WOLVERINE IS NOTHING LIKE A WOLF. It is the largest land-dwelling species in the family of badgers, otters, polecats, minks and more. It more closely resembles a small bear.
Wolverines can be the size of a medium dog weighing 35 lbs, though females often are 30% smaller and half the weight of males.
A STOCKY AND MUSCULAR CARNIVORE, the wolverine has a reputation for ferocity and strength out of proportion to its size, with the documented ability to defend itself against prey many times larger than itself.
WOLVERINES HAVE STRONG FAMILY BONDS and will interact with their kits (wolverine young) even after they are fully grown and on their own, which can happen quickly, after only a year of growth.
At the same time, Wolverines will travel great distances, often going right over mountains instead of going around them.
WOLVERINES ARE RARE. It is estimated that less than 300 live within the lower 48 states, though they also can be found in remote areas of Canada, Alaska, northern Europe and Siberia.
THE GRITTY WOLVERINE IS APT WESLEY MASCOT. Most conference softball teams have student bodies three times and more larger than the formidable Wesley College Wolverines!
