It's April 14. This is Calgary News today. Local news powered by AI. Wolverines, those fierce scavengers, gone from Labrador for decades, might finally be staging a comeback. Last verified sighting was back in the 1960s, and they're listed as endangered in Eastern Canada. Now, fresh tracks popped up near Nain, sparking real hope they're reclaiming the land. Officials with the Wildlife Division spotted one last winter during Caribou surveys in Western Labrador, snapping images they'll share later. Earlier surveys in the early 2000s came up empty in northern and central areas, but these new signs feel different. Shelley Moors, the division director, is pumped in urging folks to report any sighting straight to her team. She's betting those name tracks mean the lone survey Wolverine isn't solo. Meanwhile, Nounazia Vood's deputy minister Jim Gaudi stays cautious, sending the tracks for expert analysis to confirm. He notes Wolverine's Rome huge distances, so it could be just one wanderer hitting

multiple spots. If these critters stick around, it signals the wild bouncing back on its own. Keep those eyes peeled and reports coming. Wolverine's ecosystem could use more winds like this.
