Wolverine Research and Conservation in the Boreal Forest

North American wolverines face a myriad of threats from human disturbance. Matthew discusses his work to better understand the ecology and management of wolverines in boreal forest landscapes with industrial development. He will highlight research on wolverine denning ecology, habitat selection, density, survival, physiology, trapping, and home ranges, and relate how this work has helped update management guidelines for the species.
