Glutton, demon of destruction, symbol of slaughter, mightiest of
wilderness villains...The wolverine comes marked with a reputation
based on myth and fancy. Yet this enigmatic animal is more complex
than the legends that surround it. With a shrinking wilderness and
global warming, the future of the wolverine is uncertain. The
Wolverine Way reveals the natural history of this species and the
forces that threaten its future, engagingly told by Douglas
Chadwick, who volunteered with the Glacier Wolverine Project. This
five-year study in Glacier National Park -- which involved dealing
with blizzards, grizzlies, sheer mountain walls, and other daily
challenges to survival -- uncovered key missing information about
the wolverine's habitat, social structure and reproduction habits.
Wolverines, according to Chadwick, are the land equivalent of polar
bears in regard to the impacts of global warming. The plight of
wolverines adds to the call for wildlife corridors that connect
existing habitat that is proposed by the Freedom to Roam coalition.
