Extractions: November 22, 2000 Contact: newsroom@defenders.org Defenders of Wildlife Condemns Endangered Species Listing Moratorium Washington, DC The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the U.S. Congress have "engineered a phony budget shortfall" that FWS claims will prevent it from considering new species for protection under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), according to Defenders of Wildlife President Rodger Schlickeisen. An internal memorandum from FWS Director Jamie Clark ordered the services field offices to immediately stop work on any new endangered species listings through September 30, 2001, citing budget pressures. "The FWS has the money available to do what they must under the law, but Congress and the Service engineered a phony budget shortfall to try to shirk some of those duties. There are wildlife species in dire trouble right now that dont have time for these budget gymnastics. Animals such as the wolverine, the cerulean warbler, wolves in the southern Rocky Mountains, the New England cottontail rabbit, and other species are the real losers in this bureaucratic game, along with the hundreds of thousands of Americans whove fought to protect them," said Schlickeisen. The FWS claims that lawsuits over designation of "critical habitat" for endangered species have left it without the resources to consider new species for listing as "endangered" or "threatened." In its budget request for FY2000, however, the FWS asked for a low cap of $1,000,000 on activities to designate critical habitat, despite existing and potential court orders that would require FWS to significantly exceed that amount. Furthermore, the Service has a budget of more than $122 million for work on overall ESA issues, much of which should be available to do the core work of listing species.

http://www.wolverinefoundation.org/research/glacier.htm

Extractions: Abstract A paucity of information on the basic ecology of wolverine ( Gulo gulo ), the potential listing of the wolverine as a threatened or endangered species, and impending construction projects that may impact wolverine make it imperative that research be undertaken to provide the scientific foundation for managing wolverine in Glacier National Park. This 3-year project will employ both conventional and satellite telemetry to monitor the movements and activity of wolverine, with a focus on the reproductive ecology of female wolverine. Efforts will also be made to document the distribution and movements of wolverine and to identify those sites most critical to the species. Introduction Problem statement Background: Glacier National Park is a core component of the biologically rich Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem, and has been characterized as a refuge for wolverine, serving as a source for dispersers into surrounding areas of the Northern Rockies (Ruggiero, et al, 2000; Newby and Wright, 1955). Wolverine in Glacier may serve as a genetic storehouse for the Northern Rockies, and as part of a keystone population for wolverine in Montana.

Extractions: "Picture a weasel and most of us can do that, for we have met that little demon of destruction, that small atom of insensate courage, that symbol of slaughter, sleeplessness, and tireless, incredible activity picture that scrap of demoniac fury, multiply that mite some fifty times, and you have the likeness of a Wolverine." Ernest Thompson Seton, 1909 The wolverine ( Gulo gulo ) earned its place in North American folklore long before north-country trappers and a few over-zealous naturalists began to spin tales of a beast of great ferocity, cunning, and extraordinary strength. Indian mythology describes the wolverine as a trickster-hero, and a link to the spirit world. Still, even today the wolverine remains largely a mystery. The Wolverine Foundation, Inc. was formed in 1996 to promote interest in the wolverine's status and ecological role in the world wildlife community. It is a non-profit foundation comprised of leading wildlife scientists knowledgeable in the life history, ecology, and management of one of the least understood and most fascinating creatures on earth.

Extractions: Personalize Site / Sign up for DOW Insider WOLVERINE W olverines have a reputation larger than life, but they are impressive weasels by any W olverines are mammals of the dense forest, in both North America and Eurasia. In Colorado, historical and recent reports show nearly all wolverines are from higher elevations, in areas of heavy timber. However, wolverines may follow their considerable appetite into open country. B y day, wolverines rest in an informal den beneath a boulder or windthrown tree. By night they wander to eat rodents and carrion. Occasionally they may eat weakened deer or other large prey, especially when bogged in deep snow. Wolverines are legendary marauders of the North, renowned for their strength, cunning and viciousness. Pound for pound, they are probably no stronger than the next weasel. "Cunning" and "vicious" are terms best reserved for people. People can be cunning and vicious. Wolverines probably are just hungry and quite capable of satisfying it. W olverines breed during the warmer months. Embryos implant in January. Two to four young are born in late March or early April. Growth of the blind, toothless newborns is rapid, and they will be half-grown when they disperse in autumn.

Recovery The wolverine is the largest member of the mustelid family (otters, weasels, etc.) in North America. This squat, powerfully-muscled animal resembles a small, flattened bear. Wolverines are dark brown with a light grayish forehead and a pale stripe running from the shoulders along each side and crossing the rump. The wolverines dense fur, with long guard hairs that do not ice up in winter, is highly prized for trimming parkas. Their large paws help them move on top of crusted snow. A wolverine has a dark bushy tail, a broad rounded head, small eyes and ears. Males average 1.2 meters in length and 0.5 meters in height at the shoulder. An average male weighs about 15 kilograms. Females are smaller, averaging about 0.9 metres in length and weighing about 10 kilograms. Historically, wolverines ranged throughout most of North America.

From the window of a low-flying Cessna, Jeff Copeland spied a set of wolverine tracks leading over a 10,000-foot pass in the high peaks of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. A gentle grin creased his face as he looked over at the pilot, shaking his head slowly. Once again, the mysterious behavior of the wolverine hits the research wildlife biologist in the gut. "It never ceases to amaze me when I'm flying and I see a set of tracks in the snow in the highest, most rugged country in the wilderness," Copeland says. "What in the world is that creature doing up there?"

Wolverines are among the least understood large carnivores in North America and the largest land-dwelling member of the weasel family. Most wolverines weigh 15 to 45 pounds and stand 15 to 18 inches at the shoulder. Females are smaller than males. Their coats are glossy dark brown with two pale lateral stripes converging at the base of the tail. Wolverine heads are gray with black muzzles, short ears, and dark eyes. They are described as having a low-slung body with powerful legs and large, curved claws. Wolverines are omnivorous (eat both meat and plants) and will eat anything from berries to moose . They also feed on small mammals such as voles squirrels , and hares . Although they are very strong for their size, their reputation for ferocious attacks on large carnivores has been exaggerated. They will vigorously defend their food, but do tend to avoid bears, wolves, and other large predators. Wolverines are solitary hunters and roam large areas in search of food. Breeding occurs May through July and the kits are born in January through April. Kits emerge from their dens, usually in snow caves, hollow stumps, or under rock piles, in early summer and remain with their mother until fall.

Extractions: Government biologists must make an initial determination whether the wolverine should be protected under the Endangered Species Act by October 15, 2003 under a legal settlement announced today by conservationists. The settlement, which was approved yesterday (July 30, 2003) by a Montana federal court, jump starts a process under federal law that could yield new legal protections for one of the rarest wilderness wildlife species in the lower-48 states. This wolverine was photographed in the North Cascades by a remote camera set up by NWEA volunteers. The largest member of the weasel family, the wolverine is a bear cub-sized forest predator that persists in small numbers in the last remaining big wilderness areas of the lower-48 states. The powerful and ferocious wolverine once ranged across the northernmost states from Maine to Washington, and south as far as the mountainous regions of New York, Arizona, New Mexico, and California. Although sporadic, unconfirmed wolverine reports continue in Oregon and California, today the wolverine is known to exist only in the northern Cascades of Washington and the Rocky Mountains of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
