What a wolverine’s height measures

Drawn at the same 1 ft 2 in: Miniature American Shepherd, Parson Russell Terrier and Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Same drawing, different listings: a wolverine’s and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier’s figures are each the lower end of its range, a Miniature American Shepherd’s the lower end of its male range.

This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
