      pretty much true, only thing tougher than a wolverine is a honey badger, those fuckers are bullet proff.
      You realize this animal isn't meant to be a pet when you see him playing and does injure the guide. gotta be tough and love the animal to not retaliate and/or keep working on that.

      I think it’s the opposite. If you scream all the time, they might think that’s just a sound you make, but if you scream occasionally, they realize something is wrong. Just like with every animal (or even amongst humans as well, if a generally calm person gets mad, one might respect that and take it more seriously than a person who is constantly “screaming”).

    I've worked in the forests of Northern BC, NWT and Yukon for almost 30 years. I've seen all these animals up close and personal. Ive come across, lonewolf, wolfpacks, one with 31 wolves. My husky came face to face with a wolf once. (they just sniffed each others parts like 2 dogs in the city would. Luckily my dog came back to me before anything happened. I've seen maybe 7 wolverines in that whole time. I've been within feet of lynx, even snuck up on a family of lynx kittens playing in a siesmic line jnc (accidently). Stood within 30 ft of 2 lynx about to get it on (got video of it on my channel) Survived 2 black bear attacks, encountered 100s of them, 99.99% they take off. I got a picture of a blackbear hanging out and grazing alongside bison. One time I made friends with a raven and he would fly within a foot of my drivers window for 20 km and eat out of my hand at 60 km/h everyday for 3 weeks. I could go on forever so i'll shut up.
    Is it just me or is the guy in the video Ted Nugents twin brother?

      +Jefari H.-Probably a bit of both. When my cat bites me, enough when it is just in play, it hurts so bad, like a tiny little trap digging into my hands, :*), and wolverines are much bigger than cats and have bigger jaws. Even though this wolverine fella is clearly playing with his handler and most of them are just "love bites," it still hurts but the handler is also making his cries resemble a wolverine's to signal to the fella to stop. It's clear the wolverine is just playing around and doesn't mean any real harm, if he did, it would be a lot more clear and the wolverine would be highly more aggressive. It seems to be pretty comfortable with being around so many humans as well to where if it was scared of anyone, it would've made that very clear from the beginning. It was just far more interested in having some playtime :D.

    I saw a mated pair of wolverines once when I was hiking part of the Pacific Crest Trail in Washington, at a volcanic lake called Round Lake. I had looked up at a cliff face when I saw movement, and at first thought the cliff was much closer than it was and thought I was looking at two weasels (they pretty much are lol just ten times bigger). Then I realised that cliff was 500 yards away. It was amazing how fast they were scaling the cliff face, I've never seen anything like it. If those things wanted me dead they could probably pull it off (if I was unarmed, which I wasn't, I always carry when hiking), they are truly terrifying creatures. It's really cool to see one up close like this and so affectionate. Beautiful creatures too. I really hope their numbers bounce back, they have been pushed out of a lot of their habitat since we moved in...

      @@KimKardashiUn889 It's a _gorgeous_ lake, I guarantee you will love it. There is a trailhead to PCT accessible from the Mountain Loop Highway between Darrington and Granite Falls, it's about a 6 mile hike up from there, and Round Lake is on the way to the actual PCT.
      And be aware, the trail leading down from the top of the crest into the crater is fairly treacherous, you'll want boots with excellent traction, some strap on cleats would be ideal and a good walking stick, and maybe bring a lightweight folding trench shovel in case you need to fix any bad spots. I haven't been up there in a while (a decade actually) but the last time I went the trail was about a foot wide on a 40-something degree slope of clay, it was both narrow, steep and slippery, and a fall will without exception be fatal, it goes about 300 feet down at the 40-ish degree slope then steepens even further into a cliff with large boulders at the bottom. Maybe the forest service has cut it again recently but I wouldn't count on it. Totally worth it though, the water in that lake is as clear as diamonds, and the night sky view on a clear night is amazing, the crater blocks out a lot of the glare from city lights so you can really see the milky way. And who knows, maybe you'll see my wolverine friends or their offspring lol.

    This is the most friendly bite from a wolverine still results in a loud "OW!"

    FOR EVERYONE WHO CAME FROM BRAVE WILDERNESS:
    This wolverine is named Jasper, and Steve has raised him from the day it was born. VICE did a great video on it. Brave Wilderness is an amazing channel, but they play up the drama for production value. Jasper is not as scary as they made him out to be. He's basically Steves dog.

      That one's name is Bamf. He said so in the vid. Jasper is the brother.

      Goran Brandon Steve Kroschel is Steve Kroschel. Kroschel isn't your average anthropologist. And as Keana said, Jasper is like Steve's dog.

      Goran Brandon as I said, it's a wolverine. I never said Jasper was a dog. And I also never said that the wolverine's wild instincts wouldn't come out all of a sudden.

      Goran Brandon what? What the fuck? I am speaking English right now. I can comprehend it perfectly, I'm not a goddamn Mexican, for fucks sake.
