Abundance Notes
Wolverine have very large ranges, so their density is low even in good habitats. Further, despite intensive searches, limited observations are made in northwestern Wyoming (e.g., Inman et al 2003, Clark et al. 1989, WYNDD 2005) so they are likely rare within park boundaries.; Data Source: Doug Keinath-Lead Zoologist-Wyoming Natural Diversity Database
