Afraid of Wolverines

I cannot vacation in Siberia she said. There are wolverines there. I would be promptly dead. She knew they were fierce. With huge claws and a crushing jaw. She had heard the nightmarish stories from her own pa. They would rip me apart, eat me for lunch. My fear is gigantic, they would rip me a bunch. We pointed out that it is no mystery…. No wolverine has ever attacked a human in history. It did not matter. Her mind was made up. She would not go to Siberia. She would stay home with her pup.

I think wolverines are kind of cute.
