(3 minutes to answer) Wolverines are medium sized mammals. They weigh no more than 50 lbs. Yet they have earned their reputation for ferocity by killing prey many times their size. But why do they get in so many fights? The reason why wolverines have so many conflicts with other animals (including wolves, cougars, and even bears) is probably because of the wolverine's preferred hunting style. Rather than chasing down or tricking its prey like most hunters, the wolverine prefers to take its meals directly from other hunters. So while a polar bear or a lone wolf might be enjoying a hard earned carcass, a hungry wolverine may try to take his lunch. As you might imagine, this style of hunting get the wolverine in plenty of fights.
What is the CENTRAL IDEA in the above paragraph?
Wolverines are medium sized animals who get very hungry.
Wolverines have a aggressive hunting style.
Despite their size, Wolverines are ferocious animals.
Wolverines get into many fights.
