Who are of the predators of Wolverine?
Wolverines, being fierce and robust animals, have few natural predators. However, they can fall prey to larger carnivores such as wolves and bears, especially when young or injured. Human activities, like habitat destruction and hunting, also pose significant threats to their populations. Overall, their solitary and aggressive nature helps them avoid many potential threats in the wild.
