"It was not a fair fight. The wolverine may have been as nasty as any predator in the mountains, but it weighed only 27 pounds. The black bear had arisen from a long winter´s sleep and was almost certainly very hungry. The slain elk, carrying as much as 550 pounds of meat, was a prize worth fighting for."

I bet it was a female wolverine. One that just got into fight with her old man or it was that time of month. Either way she was in a real fowl mood when the bear came along.

Morel to the storey, when the lady is cranky, leave her the heck alone.
