Oh i thought the tail was like an ice pick. So it's just for swimming?

yeah, these guys don't need anything but their claws to dig in ice

Is it possible that the Wolvershrog would be reclassified into the genus Luterursus? Or is it still in the genus Lutrasorex?

This is a distinct genus from its ancestor.

I like they're use of bones in tools, though it makes me wonder if they use them in their construction of nests, or if they just rely on snow. Do they use particularly large bones of megafauna to denote territory boundaries, perhaps even marring their surfaces with claw scratches to denote information on the individual(s) that placed them?
