Sounds like someone trying to come up with new slang termanology. Never heard of a wolver, nor will I use the term.

I have never heard of that Wolvers too...sound just like a different term meaning the same like Werewolf....just like the shortcut "Were" or the term "Lycanthrope" At least that is what i think^^

It's almost like saying "pwned" instead of "owned", wouldn't you agree?

According to Dictionary.com, there is quite a difference.

A 'Wolver' apparently hunts wolves. Makes sense to me. Sorta like a "fisher' gets fish, y'know?

Also, Sonata Arctica used the word in one of it's songs (Ain't Your Fairytale) and the 'Wolvers' in the song were, if I understood it right, human hunters, not werewolves. Or ordinary wolves for that matter.

you are right...that makes sense to me too...but WereWolfBoy said, that the term was used relating to Werewolves...

A werewolf that hunts wolves?

Cannibalism eh?

Yeah. Kind of makes the term seem uneducated when there really is a term "Wolver" to describe something else entirely. Case closed. Good research there Aki.

Yeah. I was about to point that out. I can see Wolvers being the hunters after werewolves but I never actually heard that term short of the dictionary.

Possibly a Werewolf Hunter (which appears in movies and books) could be considered a Wolver.

Just what was the context the word was used in?
