New Wolverines in Royal Oak

Submitted by The Mad Hatter on October 18th, 2018 at 12:36 PM

Two Swedish wolverines have just committed to the Detroit Zoo.  No word yet on their pad levels or 40 times.

 

Freep link has a video worth watching.  Naturally the story from the TV station does not.

supposedly they will redfur their first year.

janis is tapped to be the viper/hybrid, while yaroslawl is expected to be on the two-deep at WLB by this time next year.  can confirm pad level and agility are off the chart.  ferocious hitters, when they arrive, the other team feels it.

Wonder who's going to draw the short stick and be the one to go in the area and take care of them.

IIRC I saw a portion of a nature documentary once that said these ones in Russia run a marathon every day in three feet of snow
