I wrapped up the season a couple weeks ago got a late start actually didn’t make it to one line till the first week of January and the other one wasn’t safe to get to until mid February in fact I only got 3 weeks on it. Closed things up early to fly up to the lower yukon and see grandkids had a record catch of 4 wolverine this year made for an exciting time

I'm surprised at how similar all 4 are colored. Is that the usual? I'm guessing 3 females and a male?

Congrats Todd! Good that you are teaching the grand kids and youth with traditions and trapping. Working in the villages, I see it is going away fast. First question I ask when arriving in a village, summer or winter, is who traps? What do they trap? Can I meet? I work along side young men from the village and I am shocked when they tell me no one traps or my grampa used to trap. Really deprives the sewing ladies of material. I couldn’t have enough tanned hides to sell when I go to villages. Good to hear from you. Did you weigh any of the wolverine? One on the right looks big..
