Wolverines: The Ferocious Predator and Trickster of the North

Better Than Human

Wolverines are solitary animals that have a reputation for being ferocious and containing a strength out of proportion to their size. For example, though wolverines are the size of a medium dog, they have no problem taking on much larger animals, like a moose. Yes, Logan, from the X-Men is named after this animal, and if you know anything about this character, this is a good super hero name for him. (Well, Jennifer, that's because he was specifically designed with a wolverine animal in mind.)
Known as a trickster God in various Native American tribes, the wolverine is a long animal with short limbs and teeth strong enough to bite through frozen bones. The wolverine population has steadily declined since the 19th century due to range reduction, habitat fragmentation and human hunting.
Wolverines are primarily scavengers and have often been called gluttons because of how quickly and how much they eat. The range of a wolverine is large and radio tracking suggests an animal can travel hundreds of miles in a few months. Traveling wolverines are even known to use human roads to travel!
