In this thesis I examine reproductive patterns, test for effects of reproductive costs and winter food availability on female reproduction, estimate rates and causes of juvenile mortality, examine dispersal patterns and analyze population viability.
Wolverine (Gulo gulo) females reached the reproductive stage no earlier than 3 years of age and the minimum average age at first reproduction was 3.4 years. Each year about every second female reproduced and produced an average of 0.8 kits per female.
Reproduction incurred costs on females that affected reproduction the subsequent year. Experimental food-supplementation of females in early winter enhanced reproductive rates, even though all food-supplemented females had reproduced the preceding year. I therefore suggest that reproductive success of wolverine females is determined by the combined effect of reproductive costs and winter food availability.
The survival rate of radio-marked juveniles from May to February was about 70%. Intraspecific predation was the most important cause of juvenile mortality (50%), and occurred in May-June when juveniles are dependent on their mother and in August-September after independence.

[Photo of a wolverine - The study area included wide-ranging animals like the wolverine (left) and less-mobile animals like the papillose tail-dropper (right). The powerfully-built, dark brown wolverine looks like a small bear (except for its bushy tail), but it acts and moves like a weasel. Human disturbance has reduced its vast historic range in the U.S. to the northern Rockies in Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho.] [Photo of a slug - The papillose tail-dropper is a 1/2-inch-long (12-millimeter-long) slug, brown with bumps ("papilla") and black spots. It can drop and regenerate its tail as a defensive tactic against predators. Old forests offer the tail-dropper the dampness and food (fungi) it needs.] The President's Northwest Forest Plan calls the Snoqualmie Pass-Interstate 90 corridor east of Seattle "a critical connective link in the north-south movement of organisms in the Cascade Range." The corridor is considered a "critical" link because it passes through old-growth forests, separating the unique plant and animal species that live in them. Early in 1998, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) launched a cooperative research effort to study the effects of I-90 on wildlife movement. The researchers chose a 30-mile (48.3-km) study area along I-90, from Snoqualmie Pass and its popular ski resort east to the town of Cle Elum on the edge of the Wenatchee Forest. In many places, I-90 is 8 lanes wide; traffic averages 24,400 vehicles a day and is expected to grow to 41,400 a day by 2018.

... Links Why This Topic? What is the current and future status of wildlife in the Clark Fork watershed? To begin to answer that question, one must consider the availability of suitable habitat and the interrelated nature of a host of factors. Here we try to sketch out some of that background. Other Measures address specific species. Terrestrial animals are key components in all parts of the energy cycle. They provide food, nutrients, and energy to each other and the system as a whole. From historical to current periods, there has been an increase in fragmentation and loss of connectivity within and between blocks of habitat, especially in lower elevation forests, shrub steppe, and riparian areas in the Clark Fork watershed. Conditions and activities that change terrestrial animal populations through positive or negative modification of their habitats can affect the cycling of energy, nutrients, and other ecosystem processes essential to forest and rangeland health. The following discussion of upland wildlife focuses on forests and rangelands.

If a Wolverine could make a wish, what would it wish for Christmas? A Wolverine Christmas Wish List! Protect my habitat. We wolverines cover huge areas – a typical home range for a male is 1500 km – and so we need big wilderness areas, such as the Bighorn and the Chinchaga, protected. We need more travel corridors. Wolverines, especially young ones, are great travelers. Movements up to 300 km are not uncommon, so well-managed corridors between protected areas allow us to move. Diverse landscapes . We eat all sorts of things, and so we need a range of habitats – mountains, forests, foothills – to live. Places that are good for food in the summer aren’t so good in the winter, so we need diverse areas protected to keep us year-round. Alberta Wilderness Association (AWA) is calling for more protection of Foothills and Boreal Forest habitats in Alberta. Less than 2% of our Foothills are protected. If we protect a variety of habitat, then we protect a variety of wildlife. Species such as wolverine need a diverse range of habitat features to survive in the long term.

Gulo gulo Order: Carnivora
Family: Mustelidae Other Names: Devil bear, carcajou, skunk bear, devil beast. Status: Wolverine fur is highly valued and widely used in the Arctic and sub-Arctic as ruffs or trim on parkas and other garments. The most viable and widespread population of wolverines in the contiguous 48 states occurs in the Rocky Mountains of Montana. Official Montana furbearer managed and protected by regulated fur harvest seasons. Identifying Characteristics: Except for its bushy tail, the wolverine looks like a small bear. Compact and strongly built. Medium brown to almost black in color. Color is paler on the head; two broad, yellowish stripes that start at shoulders and join on rump. Often displays white or light tan patch markings on the throat and chest. Feet are large in relation to size of body. Largest terrestrial member of the weasel family. Total length: 31 to 51 inches. Weight: 35 to 60 pounds. Habitat: The primary wolverine habitat in Montana is the coniferous forest types of the Rocky Mountains. Roams large areas in solitude. Mainly animals of the heavy forest. Food Habits: A very opportunistic feeder. Generally a carnivore, will also feed on meat carrion and berries. Famous for robbing traps and food caches of trappers. When necessary, can kill animals many times its own size.

    back to top The wolverine overpass (WOP) has been in place since 1997 and cost more than $1.75 million (Canadian) to construct. The structure is 50m wide and 72m long. It is an undivided, concrete structure with 1.8m high earth berms and vegetation. Infrared cameras and track beds are used to continually monitor wildlife crossings. To date, more than 1,600 crossings have been documented on the overpass, which is used predominantly by deer and elk, but also frequently by grizzly bears, wolves, cougars, and black bears. Large carnivore use on the overpass has increased each year, indicating that there is a learning curve (steeper for carnivores than ungulates) and that all wildlife eventually adapt and incorporate such structures into their movements.

    Wolverine (Gulo gulo) Population Status Distribution: Wolverine occur throughout the Yukon. They are widely distributed across the Yukon North Slope. Population size: The size or density of the wolverine population is unknown for the Yukon North Slope. However, in a relatively untrapped region of Alaska’s northwestern Arctic foothills, wolverine attained fall densities of 1.35-1.82/100 km . A population study of the Yukon North Slope was conducted in 1993/94. Population trend: Unknown. Unique or special characteristics:
    • The eastern race of wolverine is classified as endangered by COSEWIC (Convention On the Status of Endangered Wildlife In Canada), while the western race is considered vulnerable; this has led to heightened national attention to the management of wolverine. Wolverine are at naturally low densities over their entire range, have relatively low reproductive potential, and are dependent on large tracts of wilderness.
    Habitat Features Preferred habitat for wolverine is poorly known. In northern Alaska, remnant snowdrifts in small drainages with meltwater caverns are believed to be important for maternal females and their offspring, and snowdrifts are thought to provide den sites. The quality of wolverine habitat is probably linked to the biomass of large mammals; as such, the seasonal occurrence or range of the Porcupine caribou herd may provide good wolverine habitat. Local Importance Harvest: An average of about 10-13 wolverine per year was reported at Aklavik through the Inuvialuit Harvest Study from 1986-1993. The harvest has been biased toward males; the explanation for this is unknown. Most wolverine are tracked and shot in late winter, typically by caribou hunters.

    By Sherry Devlin

    July 16, 1998
    Wolverines had not been trapped in California since the 1920s, and the habitat seemed adequate for far greater populations. Yet they were gone. The same was true for lynx and wolverines in Colorado and in the Cascades of Oregon and Washington. Then Ruediger came across research on the Florida panther, telling how 65 percent of the endangered cats had been killed on highways since 1981. And a study of the ocelot, another endangered cat, showing the species reduced to about 80 animals in Texas, again because of collisions with cars and trucks. Ruediger, leader of the Forest Service's threatened, endangered and sensitive species program in Montana and north Idaho, started collecting stories closer to home. From the Bow River Valley of Canada came a study of coyotes, documenting a 35 percent highway death rate. And again from Florida, came research suggesting that while highway traffic had increased by 100 percent in recent years, black bear road kills went from less than five a year to more than 90. Then, while driving on Interstate 90 from Missoula to Rock Creek one spring morning, Ruediger counted 17 dead deer on the roadside.

    Riding on the back of a snowmobile in Huron County with coyote hunters who earlier reported spotting a wolverine, Arnie Karr snapped pictures of the animal as it ran out of the woods and across a field. Tuesday's encounter by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources wildlife biologist, officials say, marks the state's first confirmed sighting of the forest predator in the wild since reports by fur traders dating to the late 1700s and early 1800s. "The markings were very clear," Karr said. "There's just no question."

    WOLVERINE ROADKILL UNFORTUNATE YET PROVIDES VALUABLE INFORMATION KEMMERER—When Kemmerer wildlife biologist Ron Lockwood received a call at midnight March 17 that there was a dead wolverine in U.S. Highway 30 he thought for sure this was another “badger hit and run.” No dead badger this time. There truly was a wolverine. It’s a good news, bad news situation with the recent loss of the rare female wolverine. Unfortunately, a vehicle did hit and kill a wolverine near Fossil Butte National Monument west of Kemmerer and that means a loss of that adult, as well as her offspring into the population. But it is some consolation for biologists that this discovery of the large weasel cousin will prove beneficial in understanding the species’ home and territorial ranges, habitat requirements, as well as physiological information. Wolverines are rare and the discovery of this wolverine caused quite a stir in Kemmerer and surrounding towns. Dozens of local residents stopped by to see the animal at Game Warden Chris Queen’s garage. Wolverines are the largest members of the weasel family with small populations in the mountains of extreme western and northwestern Wyoming. Primarily nocturnal, the animal but may be active at any time. They do not hibernate and can travel long distances without stopping. Wolverines are an omnivore (eats meat and plant) feeding mostly on carrion in late winter and early spring, big game and small game animals, birds, mice, porcupine, beaver and berries in the summer.

    November 5, 2001 WOLVERINES TO BE CAPTURED ON CAMERA IN RED LAKE AREA TORONTO - The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) is set to start a second season of `camera trapping' wolverines, an elusive species at risk. MNR will partner with local trappers to `capture' photos of wolverines. The trappers provide the bait. "This program shows the innovative methods MNR is using to learn more about species at risk," said Natural Resources Minister John Snobelen. "The data gathered by this project will help us learn more about this animal." Last March and April, MNR Wildlife Assessment and Red Lake District staff set up 10 cameras at nine `camera-trap' sites, which had been baited with food. The cameras snapped photos of the animals that came to feed. Twelve wolverine photographs were obtained. Sample image: Click on image for an enlarged view. The wolverine is the largest member of the weasel family. It is a solitary, wide-ranging carnivore that can travel up to 50 kilometres in a single day. Ontario's population of wolverine is listed as special concern by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC), which means it's sensitive to human activity or natural events. Photos of 11 other wildlife species were also taken, including lynx, marten, fisher, striped skunk, moose, black bear, varying (snowshoe) hare, red squirrel, northern flying squirrel, raven and gray jay.

    One animal's story By Beth Wohlberg, Camera Staff Writer The wolverine is one of hundreds of plant and animal species waiting while the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service struggles to keep up with all of the petitions and lawsuits regarding the Endangered Species Act. In July, the Louisville-based Biodiversity Legal Foundation filed a petition with Fish and Wildlife to list the wolverine under the act. The agency responded in August, only to say that it doesn't have the money to work on the petition. "Under the law, we are supposed to make every attempt within 90 days to respond to a petition," said Fish and Wildlife biologist Gary Patton in an interview in January. "But we have more to do than people to do it. The service developed a priority system for our workload. The (wolverine) petition will sit until it surfaces." Fish and Wildlife officials say a backlog of petitions, lawsuits and court-ordered decisions has forced them to halt the listing of any new species or critical habitats. The self-imposed moratorium affects 249 candidate species that won't be considered for formal listing unless they face an emergency situation, and about 25 species that were proposed for formal listing.
