From the book fighters, a description how ravens are bullying wolverines.

"A Wolverine in a Spot of Bother

 Wolverines suffer the most from the ravens’ bullying. The old male we dubbed Fully Black altered his entire feeding schedule because of them. Several times I witnessed how the poor animal was forced away by the birds. Bullies are encouraged by the weaker party showing signs of fear. Fully Black’s precipitous departure encouraged the ravens to sink their talons into his back. They had discovered that mobbing produced the desired result. Finally, Fully Black got fed up with being active in the evenings or mornings and became entirely nocturnal. Since ravens spend a several-hour siesta at night, even at the height of summer, they do not harass visitors to the carrion then and are content with emitting warning calls. 

From the alarm standpoint, the wolverine is not a species that elicits much response from the ravens. Many times a wolverine has put in a sudden appearance at the carrion without any previous fanfare from these birds. There have been occasions, however, when a raven has emitted a soft alarm call upon the arrival on the scene of a wolverine."
