Watching a show on Paranmount about wolverines in Finland. The show follows a female wolverine. At one point she takes down a full grown reindeer. Amazing.

I read a book by someone who did a study of wolverines in Glacier national park. Interesting read. One that had a collar was recorder going over the highest mountain in the park.. It covered the last 2000f in 15 minutes. What was truly fascinating about that was it occurred in January. January there, at that elevation, would mean snow measured in yards and -30 on a warm day. He said that he did not believe that inclines mattered to them, they just went wherever they wanted, when ever they wanted. One showed up here in town a couple winters ago.

I've only seen a couple over the years. I just left them alone. I was elk hunting up in the mountains south of Cody. Sitting up against a rock looking out over a nice park. Was looking across at a small black bear. heard some noises. There was a good sized rock chuck hole in front of me next to a stump of a dead tree. All of a sudden A whopping sized badger came out and started to peruse the park too. He musta smelled me as he was only 6 or 7 ft away. He whipped around and snarled at me. I thought I was gonna have to go toe to toe with a Peed off badger. I mean I wanted a bayonet and a carbine. He just kinda flipped back in the hole...thank goodness. The sphincter was a little tight for a few seconds...and it was a badger not a wolverine. I made a decision to retreat. Never want to mess with either critter
