Old goofy drawing from 8 years ago
I did this drawing years ago and it popped up on a memory feed. I laughed at it and thought I'd share.

Despite there being only 1000 wolverines in Alberta, and only 200 to 250 of them being breeding females, Alberta has decided to let the trappers kill as many as they want. Apparently the province thinks the kill data will give them better population estimates. So we are going to let trappers kill as many of these slow to reproduce animals as they want, so we can know how many are left? What then? Are they seriously going to protect wolverines when the trappers kill too many and the decline of this species accelerates? I doubt it.
Fur trapping hasn't faced an organized movement to protect wild furbearers in some time. The modern anti fur movement is doing excellent work, but is focused on fur farming. I appreciate that. But someone needs to fill the gap and address commercial fur trapping.

A Wolverine sleeping in the nest. The small screen photo is view the outside the nest. I took this screenshot from the Ahma live streaming at Ähtäri Zoo, Finland. This was broadcast on Yle Luonto in February a few years ago when they were hoping for babies at the zoo. 'Ahma' is the common name for the wolverine in the Finnish language.

Maybe you know, maybe you don't, but here are the facts:
Mongooses and Hyenas are both more akin to cats than Weasels and Wolverines.
Mongooses are outlawed in the U.S. because of their extreme capabilities of killing all small animals. Mongooses, like cats, hunt in packs and form familial groups.
Weasels are largely solitary animals, as are Wolverines, but are extremely capable of obtaining food.
Given these comparisons, it's my belief that the main reason Mongooses are outlawed in the US is because of their affinity to cats and ability to work as a team to eliminate areas of food for other animals. I'm quite aware that Hawaii is infested with these creatures, and as a result, the ban is in place. This being said, it's truly an amazing animal.
My best comparison of the dog and cat type predators is the Hyena for cat and Wolverine for dog, or, the Weasel for dog and the Mongoose for cat. Both groups are highly similar, yet completely different too. I'm happy to know that the US prefers dog-like predators over cat-like ones.
