do you have any other cursed biology facts about good animal dads?

sure, and the answer may surprise you: wolverines!

like many other carnivorans, wolverines are solitary predators that roam huge swaths of territory alone, with a single male’s territory overlapping several females that he fathers kits with on a yearly basis. (a male wolverine’s territory can be over 500 square miles, which is a lot of Dude Room.)

however, UNLIKE other solitary carnivorans, male wolverines don’t call it quits on their progeny once they tip their hats to the ladies and scram, so to speak. instead, a male wolverine will stop by the homestead of each of his mates in turn when he’s in the area, and will check in on the kits and even borrow them for a day or two of Dad Camping to make sure they’re getting enough to eat and to beef up their survival skills!

(and also sometimes he’ll just sit on them, I guess.) 

and wolverine paternalism doesn’t end when the kits grow up, by any means- wolverine dads will also keep an eye on their young adult children and step in if they seem to be having trouble making ends meet, or if baby manages to get themselves trapped by a bunch of biologists in a tagging program.

(not pictured: angry wolverine father just inside the treeline, waiting for the unwary scientist to turn his back.)

so that’s something to keep in mind if you ever run across a baby wolverine and try to pick it up like a total dumbass: you’re about to have your limbs pulled off by not one, but TWO angry adult wolverines!

(and you deserve it.)

viewing queer identities as “this is the label that makes me happy and feels most accurate now” rather than “this is who I am, was, and always will be” will definitely take the pressure off, friends. changing your mind is proof that you have one.
