Big MT wolverine
« on: November 06, 2014, 07:01:01 AM »
A friend of mine at work showed me this.. I guess this wolverine is a local legend out of Dillon,MT. They thought it was dead till it showed up on this elk. The bio's said its one of the largest they know of.

I'm surprised it didn't chew on the camera when it noticed it.

So they're normally about the size of a bobcat? and he likely killed that elk? Or is he probably just a scavenger?

I've never seen one  :sry:

Have you ever seen a wolverine Bone? I have not. I have see ONE fisher... but not a good look and not for long...

Definitely a scavenge Campmeat... and I'd say they avg a bit bigger than your average bobcat... but not a ton bigger.
