The Wolverine is the smallest of the four large carnivores found in Finland with an overall length ranging from 65 to 87 cm and generally weighing between 10 to 30 kg.  They are considered to be mostly carnivorous but have been known to eat various species of the many berries found within their range.

They are naturally shy and with the low number of between 130 - 200 found in Finland they are difficult to both observe and photograph.
