Skunk bear of the north

Article Abstract:

Wolverines, which inhabit the tundra regions of the Far North, are rarely seen by humans. The powerful and destructive animals are members of the weasel family and are often called "skunk bears." Their nickname is fitting because they resemble skunks but are fierce like bears.
