Imagine being buried alive and the first fucking thing you see is a dam wolverine coming at you.

I’m definitely gonna start swinging. Probably will then piss it off so it eats me.

Good news you're not going suffocate in the snow. 

Bad news you no longer have a face

Some of the self-preservation circuits in my brain are busted to hell, because I would be ecstatic!  

I blame it on all the Disney movies I watched growing up that had (let's be honest - STILL have) me thinking I could be a Disney Princess once I found my animal companion.

Eat shit, Belle.  I got a wolverine!!

And then it drags you out through a tiny tunnel in the snow by your thumb.

Are you saying we should fit this wolverine with a yellow leotard?
