词源

Michigan has a long-standing association with the wolverine: for example, many Detroiters volunteered to fight during the American Civil War and George Armstrong Custer, who led the Michigan Brigade, called them the "Wolverines". Perhaps originally from a local trade in wolverine fur, or perhaps suggesting a vicious temper.
