Description Plesiogulo fue un glotón prehistórico- a veces considerado ancestro del moderno-, del cual las especies más grandes, tales como P. monspessulanus, podían pesar hasta 100 kilos- el tamaño de un oso pequeño (y tres o cuatro veces más grande que los glotones actuales). Imaginen toparse con semejante animal en la oscuridad de un bosque del Mioceno o Plioceno... 
Al igual que los glotones modernos habitó en una amplia extensión del Hemisferio Norte pero parece que nunca fue muy abundante.

Plesiogulo was a prehistoric wolverine- sometimes considered the ancestor of the modern one- of which the largest species such as P. monspessulanus weighed up to 100 kg, about the size of a small bear (and three or four times larger than the largest wolverines of our days). Imagine meeting such an animal in the dark Miocene-Pliocene forest! Like today's wolverines, it appears that it was never very abundant and was found all over the northern Hemisphere.

You know what i meant. Wolverines are fearless, able to punch above their weight and being plotted against one the size of a small bear is not an optimistic prospect

Mustelids are generally quite badass creatures that don’t give a damn what their opponent is,they’ll attack it anyway. Otters have killed caimans,and the honey badger exists.

Yup. I'd rather swim with a great white shark

Actually no. I take that back. simmultaneously drowning and losing blood from large open wounds in the sea doesn't seem like a peaceful death either.

They say a great white shark bite is so traumatic often times you don´t feel pain... but drowning sounds awful >.>

Just imagine, you are taking a nice stroll through a forest then you see this horrifying thing poke its head out from a tree a few feet in-front of you,
pretty terrifying if i say so.

Good art as always Hodari!

Yes, as in the family to which wolverines belong to, which also includes weasels, stoats, grisons, otters, badgers, martens and other fearless, absurdly ferocious little things
