Here's What No One Tells You About What Do We Know About Wolverines 

    Though it looks like a small bear, the Wolverine is actually the larges animal in the weasel family.  The Wolverine is a ferocious animal noted for its strength, cunning, fearlessness, and voracity. 

    Wolverines are solitary animals. They hunt by night and need a lot of room to roam around. Individual Wolverines may travel 24 kilometres in a day in search of food. They often live in dens amongst roots and rocks. They are almost known to dig dens in snowdrifts as well. 

    Small animals like rabbits and rodents are an easy catch for Wolverines. They often prey on animals many times larger than their size. They occasionally feed on carrion of the corpses of larger mammals, such as elk, deer, and caribou. Their jaws are extremely powerful and can crunch through frozen meat and bone easily. 

    Wolverines are found in isolated areas of Canada, North West USA, Northern Europe, Northern and Eastern Asia. Wolverine populations are steadily declining since the 19th century due to a number of reasons like trapping, range reduction and habitat fragmentation.
