text: The Wolverine's\n\nWe are noted for the following traits: \n\nStanding Our Ground \nFierceness \nElusiveness \nCleverness \nStrength \nEndurance \nCourage \n\nReal wolverines are so badass the football team can't even have the real ones on the side line in cages \n\nIn 1927, 10 wolverines were obtained from Alaska and placed in the Detroit Zoo. On big football days, two of these wolverines were brought to Michigan Stadium and carried around in cages. \nHowever, the animals grew larger and more ferocious, and as Yost states, " It was obvious that Michigan mascots had designs on the Michigan men toting them, and those designs were no means friendly." Therefore the practice of bring wolverines into the stadium had to be discontinued after only one year. However, one of the wolverines was not returned to the zoo. Instead "Biff" was put in a cage at the University of Michigan Zoo where students were able to visit him at times. In 1937, the Chevrolet Motor Company donated a wolverine (as well as a cage to keep it in), to the University of Michigan. It was unclear how long this wolverine lasted, but it is known that no live wolverines have been in the stadium in the last half century. \n\n\nIf a Wolverine was the size of a bear it would be the strongest animal on the planet.\n\nI know what you should absolutely not name your football team\n\nThe Spartans.... Sparta was the queen the ancient city was named after, her husband was the name of the whole territory. Do you really want to be thought of as someones little sister?...lol
