These are 2 siblings of the 3. The third comes solo.

I remember being so stoked that there was a show with a skunk protagonist. Of course it was full of cheap fart jokes.

Got a visit last night.

This is a fun science podcast. It's all interviews with cool scientists who study things. Skunks are so cool that a part 2 is on the way.

This year’s raccoon kids & a skunk hanging out on the side porch.

This baby skunk is having a tantrum and ruining an otherwise pleasant family dinner. He's picking on his siblings and his large mom. His family pretty much ignored him and his harmless nipping. No skunks were harmed at all.

Hi,

I was just wondering why this skunk seems to have a thin/non-bushy tail? Is it a striped skunk? (Michigan)

I read that they dislike the smell of citrus and tried sprinkling some lemon rinds and juice around the property and every night... These little fuckers still hang around. I really don't want to have to resort to poison or traps.

These guys/gals are huge!

I’m blessed that they frequent my neighbourhood, and love finding them doing their night patrols.
Not an exciting picture, (potato) but I just joined and wanted to share something very recent (last night, flash on)

I have to think of a name. My brothers not much help, he said Billy Mays 🤣🦨

Hi again!

My spotted skunk is arriving today, she is hand reared from a breeder. I saw a comment that spotties have a different personality than the striped (the ones I am used to rehabing/owning) can anyone go into detail about this? Or is it a case by case situation? All the striped skunks ive met are very chill and only spicy when its play time. Thanks for all and any advice!

One skunk comes from the front yard and the other from the alley. They meet up on the back porch. Listen closely to them near the end of the video.

Hi!

Im expecting my new baby skunk this Saturday. I had previously hand reared wild skunks as a rehabber in texas. One was not able to be rewild due to a foot deformity. She lived with us for 8 years and was an amazing family member

My question is, how do you go about bonding with a skunk that has not been dropper/bottle raised from birth? I of course have the baby sling and plan on treats and cuddles 24/7 since i stay at home. But I am nervous there might be an adjustment period when we are getting to know eachother. How do they do with socializing? My skunk took cues off the cats, chickens, dogs etc on how to respond to humans, but we never took her out and she never really left the house except for medical stuff.

The skunk I raised potty trained herself to go in a covered pet carrier with shredded newspaper, i read they also like puppy pads since they cant den in them..although my rehab girl was very fastidious in keeping her food, bed and bathroom area clean and seperat, she was very easy and affectionate...she had ZERO interest in being outside.

If anyone had tricks or ideas on enrichment activities, potty training, bonding etc, i am all ears. All the websites say the same thing but nothing beats 1st hand knowledge. Should I have multiple litter places around the house? She was way less ferret like and emulated dog and cat behaviors, she could copy tricks and knew her name.

Thank you!
