with some cool things like how wolverine dads visit the dens of their
mates and help out with offspring, and comments about the miles they
log in their rounds including
>"He ascended over 5,000 feet vertical and crossed the very top of Mt.
>Cleveland. And he did it in 90 minutes,"
and
> For the wolverine, what would seem extreme is merely routine.

and further info like:
>They pair-bond with two or three females for life (they live 8 to 10
>years) typically producing two to five litters with each mate.

Notice:
>Soon to star on TV

>an animal "that is fiercely intelligent, social and curious."
