FoodsWolverines mostly eat pocket gophers, marmots, bighorn sheep, wapitis, mule deer, four species of voles, and mantled ground squirrels. They eat a lot of meat."As it looks for food,the wolverine lopes slowly throughout a wide range" (National Geographic Book of Mammals). Wolverines are meat eaters. I think that's crazy.

Nature
Wolverines are cute small deadly and fierce. They have razor-sharp teeth that they use a lot. They are very aggresive. Wolverines are small carnivores but the biggest of the weasel family. Wolverines mark their property with their scent.
My ModelI made a full size model of a wolverine. The skeleton is made of wire. It also has lots of fake fur.
My model used iced tea to paint the fur brown. I think I like the wire the best. It has witch fingers and vampire teeth. I think they go together very well! I also made a footprint out of clay. There are more pictures on the picture page. |
