"Only known wolverine in Michigan dies" screamed the headline in the Detroit Free Press. Honest to gosh.
This one was too good to pass up.
No it is not a joke. The last surviving Wolverine in Michigan was found dead and they are preforming an autopsy! The female wolverine, found Saturday by a pair of hikers near a beaver dam in the Minden City State Game Area, appears to have died from natural causes, said Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment spokeswoman Mary Detloff.
Natural causes indeed. I bet they will find that it was a heart attack that occurred around 3:30 Friday afternoon. After 19 out of 22 times, the poor thing just couldn't handle another loss to the Buckeyes.
May she rest in peace!
