One of the fiercest animals on the Earth, the wolverine uses bone-crushing teeth and sharp claws to topple animals as big as a moose-more than ten times the wolverine's size.

Rip Roarin': The wolverine's teeth tear viciously into prey. The long, sharp canines in front rip open the victim. The interior teeth chomp down and shatter bone.

Nailed: Each paw has five claws that are used as deadly weapons. The claws partially retract when not in use.

Don't Pet This Animal![]

While the furry wolverine looks small and harmless, it is one of the most feared animals in the natural world. Even bears retreat from the snarls and growls made by this vicious predator.

Sniff-Sniff: The wolverine's eyesight is poor, but it still prefers to hunt at night, using its sharp sense of smell.

Skunky: The wolverine has anal glands that it uses to mark its territory. The stinky fluid it leaves is almost as smelly as the spray of a skunk, a cousin of the wolverine. Both animals are members of the weasel family.

All Around Eater[]

Wolverines have a truly balanced diet-they'll eat almost anything. The animal will munch on insects, bird eggs, fruits, nuts and berries in season, then easily switch to hunting animals as big as deer and moose. If the wolverine finds a carcass, it doesn't hesitate to dig in.
