Wolverine, North Cascades.
North Cascades wolverine.
A rare fisher in the North Cascades, evidence of a successful reintroduction campaign spearheaded by the state of Washington to return this species to the state.
The Wolverine fire in the Lake Chelan watershed decimated vast stands of forest in the mountains here. Climate change is affecting how fires burn in the North Cascades. The impact of this on wolverines is currently unknown.
Smoke fills canyons on the western slope of the North Cascades during an unusual wildfire event in this rainforest clad landscape. Above treeline the grey ice and bare rock visible at the lower elevations of these North Cascades glaciers are a sign of glacier recession. Both of these are related to human caused climate change in the ecoregion which is predicted to reduce wolverine habitat significantly.
Wolverines depend on locations where snow lingers into late spring, making natal dens in deep shaded valley bottoms or in high elevation talus fields.
