So what do we already know about Skunks?

If you said, they have a white stripe down

their backs, and are kind of stinky, you

would be right!

​

They will only ever 'spray' if they feel threatened. Generally they are nice natured, but you still don't want to encourage them to go through your rubbish (garbage / trash)!

​

They live in many different habitats including meadows, moors wetland and farmland & even beaches. 

Skunks only come out at night, and are very similar to badgers for this reason. They also hibernate and save their energy through the cold Winters particularly when its below freezing. I don't blame them!!
