I would look at species of birds, more specifically those native to Alaska or the general Northern California, Southern Alaskan Range. Birds are one of the most common scavengers in the animal kingdom (i.e. vultures), closely followed any given species of rodents. An Alaskan bird that may be of interest to you is the bird of the United States, the Bald Eagle; in which the species does capture prey, however, a group of Bald Eagles well not hesitate to feast on a carcass that has been left over form a wolf's meal. This same behavior also be observed by well known species such as hawks and hyenas. Remember just because a species captures its food, does not mean natural selection will not favor the behavior of being a scavenger as well.

The Artic Wolf, Artic Fox, Glaucous Gulls, Wolverines, Northern Fulmar and Ivory Gulls are all considered scavengers in the Arctic Regions. Though many of those mentioned can/will sometimes hunt, they usually scavenge. Polar Bears sometimes scavenge as well.
