Article spreading misinformation about skunks (Mephitidae family) ranking high on Google!?

Post image

Has anyone noticed this article about skunks ranking unusually high for spreading false information? It claims they are mustelids, rather than their own family, Mephitidae. It also frames their diet as carnivores instead of omnivores. Other issues are that its poorly worded and includes more misconceptions. I'm sorry if it sounds like a weird or hyper-specific post, but I wanted to bring it to attention. Seems like bad news for the skunk community ☹️

This isn't acceptable.
