Wolverines have thick, dark brown fur and big paws that work like snowshoes. They have strong jaws and sharp claws. Even though they are not very big, they look tough and muscular.
Wolverines eat meat, berries, and nuts. They have a great sense of smell and can sniff out food hidden deep under the snow. Wolverines sometimes bury extra food in the snow to save it for later.
- Wolverines are super strong for their size.
- They are not afraid of animals much bigger than them!
- A wolverine can travel up to 15 miles in a single day while looking for food in the snowy wilderness.
