I agree. I think they move enough that you can find them in most habitats. BUT, they vary temporally. As long as there is food around they will usually stick with it. I also believe that higher wolf populations result in greater wolverine densities. Based on that I would expect them to start showing up in Minnesota soon. If they do they'd protect them for 50 years like the blessed holy wolves

I was thinking of you. I've been fortunate to take a lot of big game animals over the years and the cost/price (bush charters, licenses, etc.) of collecting them probably wouldn't add up to what this would run me. A wolverine would make for a much smaller rug than a bear but there's nothing I'd rather see hanging on my wall. I'm leaning really hard toward it.

Plus what you could have sold the animal for ?
I'm trying to beat him down on price, would you please stop encouraging him? Just a point of reference........in 2010 Okiekajun came up and trapped with me for 10-11 days. He took several marten, fox, otter and wolverine. All in it probably cost him 12-13 thousand NOT counting taxi costs

All in it probably cost him 12-13 thousand NOT counting taxi costs I was just joking with him, white. Dave and I are in discussions and he's answering all of my questions via PM. I haven't even asked him about the price, it is what it is. The ball is in my court.

BTW, I'd have come up there and spent some time with you in a heartbeat. I've never remotely considered something like this before. I am now. Believe me I considered that. But it will be much cheaper for you this way. And a LOT easier on my body !! Hahaha
