What this page adds
The Wolverine has thick, dark brown fur, often with a broad, creamy-yellow stripe running along its sides. It possesses a stocky, muscular body, a wide head, and short, powerful legs, making it look incredibly robust.
Its scientific name, Gulo gulo, means 'glutton' because it loves to eat!
They bravely defend their food, even from much larger animals like bears.
Wolverine fur resists frost, keeping them warm in super-cold, snowy places.
