After watching the Wolverine: Chasing the Phantom, we realized that despite a fierce reputation, wolverines are actually kind of endearing. The are unstoppable. Their Latin name is Gulo gulo, gulo being Latin for glutton. They eat everything, and will happily eat a frozen carcass.  They are made to travel fast across long distances in deep snow.  Humans simply can't keep up with them.  And they do not ever back down.

Wolverines are the largest land dwelling member of the Mustelidae family.  Other mustelids include minks, martens, ferrets, otters, badgers and weasels, of course.
