review 1: loved it.“If wolverines have a strategy, it's this: Go hard, and high, and steep, and never back down, not even from the biggest grizzly, and least of all from a mountain. Climb everything: trees, cliffs, avalanche chutes, summits. Eat everybody: alive, dead, long-dead, moose, mouse, fox, frog, its still warm heart or frozen bones. Whatever wolverines do, they do undaunted. They live life as fiercely and relentlessly as it has ever been lived.” Douglas Chadwick, The Wolverine Way
review 2: This is, hands down, the best ever Nature/animal study book I've ever read, and I've read a lot of them. I'd give this book a thousand stars if allowed. It was exciting, heart-breaking, funny, big-time adventurous, knowledgeable, fascinating. Have I said I'd give it a mil
... morelion stars if allowed? I learned so much about wolverines on top of it. And about grizzlies, mountain goats, pine martins, and people. The people who studied the wolverine worked in the most amazing, dangerous conditions. Night studies/operations in below zero temps, forging streams barefoot/barelegged just after the ice broke up, mountain climbing, etc., I am in awe. I am also now completely infatuated with wolverines. May they travel their wolverine way forever. As Chadwick says, "There's wild, and then there's wolverine." less

These big mustelids are fascinating creatures. I thought the book was very well done.
