I had an old timer in AK tell me if you ever see one kill it because they like to follow people back to camp and then tear the hell out of the camp after you’ve gone out again.
I have no doubt of their strength or tenacity, but have never felt them a threat to humans.
They are rarely seen. Closest I’ve been was about 20 yards near the peak of a mountain. I was sheep hunting in the Alaskan Range (in AK). He was rolling in a snow patch and had no idea we were there. It was one day before season...
We seen a good number on the south side of the Brooks Range. We had killed a sheep and had crossed back over a river. When we looked back down, there was three wolverine on the carcass. I think we seen 3 or 4 other wolverine that trip.
Cool critters!
