Send Me a Box of Wolverines
. . . is a lively illustrated children’s book about wolverines, an amazing wild animal that used to live in Colorado. Wolverines are determined, spirited, and independent creatures that personify wilderness. The book is carefully researched and is accurate about the natural history of wolverines. They are really cool animals that captivate adults and kids.
In 2009, a lone wolverine (M-56) with a transmitter wandered down from Wyoming, took up residence in Colorado, and roamed widely around the state. The transmitter quit sending signals in 2012. M-56’s story drew a lot of interest and enthusiasm for this plucky species and inspired this book. In 2016 M-56 was found in North Dakota, but sadly had been killed. Efforts to re-establish them in Colorado have been underway for many years and may now be moving ahead. Check for updates on the “NEW” button below

“Why would anyone want a box of wolverines? This delightfully illustrated narrative not only presents the reader with fascinating facts about the wolverine, but also makes a poignant argument for reintroduction of this little-known species. Beware! After reading this lively and engaging book, you may also wish to order a box of wolverines!”
“Whether you’re and outdoor enthusiast, an educator, a scientist, or perhaps even a slightly confused X-men fan, you will open these pages to lope across the wild backcountry of Colorado on the heels of an amazing creature. And you will come away cheering for more.”
