EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print, dating back to 1790, depicts the enigmatic and elusive wolverine, also known as the carcajou or glutton (Mustela gudo). The image is taken from the seminal work "Natural History, General and Particular" by the renowned French naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon. Buffon was a pioneering figure in the field of natural history, and his meticulously detailed observations and illustrations of various species helped shape the scientific understanding of the natural world during the Enlightenment. The wolverine, a member of the weasel family, is a powerful and solitary predator native to the northern hemisphere. Known for its distinctive appearance, with a stocky build, short legs, and a distinctive head crest, the wolverine is an apex predator in its habitat. This print, produced during the height of the European fascination with the natural world, would have been a prized addition to any natural history collection. Buffon, in his text, refers to the wolverine as a "glutton," a name that likely stems from the animal's reputation for consuming large quantities of food. The wolverine is an omnivore, feeding on a wide range of prey, including rodents, birds, fish, and even larger animals such as moose and elk. This versatile diet, combined with its powerful jaws and sharp claws, makes the wolverine a formidable predator in its environment. This evocative print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the natural world was a source of endless fascination and discovery. The wolverine, a creature of mystery and strength, continues to captivate us today, a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
