The Striped Skunk is the most common skunk in North America, Like all skunks,they have a natural defense system. Equipped with two glands at the base of their tail,they are able to defend themselves against most predators. After giving an intruder ample warning, a skunk is able to spray a sulphuric-smelling musk,which aimed accurately,is able to cause intense pain & temporary blindness! Skunk musk is also oily & extremely difficult to remove.This natural defense system enables the skunk to ward off with confidence most who dare to challenge them!
Yipes! Stripes! Beware! Don't make me lift my hind legs! |
Pardon me, but I must go to see my Den Mother! |
rats,shrews,mice,squash bugs,potato bugs, & grasshoppers eaten !

I bet ewe didn't know that we were real "Stinkers" growing up! |
.
Ewe don't have a thing to Fear! I'm right here! |
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us,who can be against us."Romans 8:31
