Wikipedia article

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

A small, muscular, weasel-like creature. It is known for its ferocity.

Wolverines are small carnivorous creatures found in mountains and taigas. They are solitary, only appearing one at a time. Slightly larger than a honey badger, they behave in a similar fashion, being prone to rage and randomly going in a violent frenzy for a while, much to the dismay of any dwarf who happens to be at their vicinity when it happens. When not enraged, they are benign and will flee from other creatures instead. A newborn wolverine is called a wolverine kit.

Wolverines can be captured in cage traps and trained into cheap exotic pets. They provide equivalent returns to a dog when butchered, making them an emergency source of food if needed. A trained wolverine can serve as a potential distraction against intruders if it rages when they arrive, but don't expect it to survive the encounter.

Some dwarves like wolverines for their tenacity.

Admired for its tenacity.
D4Dwarf.png This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable.


The claws of a wolverine are made out of pure adamantine, and produce a distinctive 'snikt' sound when readied.

Be sure to use a powerful ranged weapon when dealing with many wolverines. They have been known to attack the cousins of some dwarves, causing said dwarves to retaliate. I mean... they kept trying to attack their cousins, what the heck would you do in a situation like that?!
