Wolverine on Frozen Lake

One of the major highlights of my trip to Churchill this year was when our workshop leader, Marc, spotted this wolverine near a frozen lake. It was before sunrise and very dark when he made his way across the lake. He has a very interesting gait with his back legs being longer than his front legs.

He came back to the lake later for some amazing interactions with a raven and silver fox. I’ll be saving those videos for a future contest.

Sitting on a frozen lake taking videos of a wolverine was mind blowing. Such a rare opportunity to see one in the wild, so getting video of him was very special. This was day 4 of my 14-day adventure and thought that it was going to be downhill after this, but it wasn’t.
