The wolverine is classified as a species of least concern by the IUCN, but they are sparse in Europe and parts of North America due to hunting and habitat changes. Reintroduction programs are in place to restore populations in certain areas. Wolverines also appear to be sensitive to the depth of the snowpack, with populations declining in areas with decreasing snow depth.
