Haha, there were four of them. Baby skunks are the cutest. I didn’t get sprayed because I didn’t bother them. Actually, I put cat food out for them till they struck out on their own. I never did meet Mama Skunk. Skunks are very cool creatures.
It’s so striking how the skunk remains black and white in the color version. And now I wish this challenge was called “sarcastic and obnoxious things you can say at an art museum.”
oh no! I have had a close up encounter with one of this dudes cousins-black, white or color, not a critter I want to encounter again! I was the huge looser in that relationship 🙂
They are docile if you remain calm and give them food. Years ago I had one that visited me so I could feed it peanuts. During certain months of the year, it visited me because I had food and also wanted to be petted. We are always scared because we know it can be defensive, but if we act calmly, it won’t be on the defense. And now I miss my skunky in Ithaca, NY, who came to visit me for three years. They’re gentle creatures and have defense mechanism, but if you show them you have some yummy food, they are happy to see you and don’t spray a thing.
Our husky got loose and took off running when I was a kid, I am not a large person so when I jumped on his back to slow him down, it did not work! He ran right into the woods and scared a skunk. Both the dog and I slunk back home and smelled funky for two days!! Do not scare the skunk! That was my take away from that day 🙂
Evil little critters! I have an entire family living under the hay barn! There are not enough live traps! It is like Watership Down , but with skunks!!!
Everyone Else Has the Best Titles 
The color definitely got my attention.😝🐉❤️🐉❤️🐉❤️

Do you think she got sprayed?
I doubt the skunk liked having a camera flashing in its face.

I agree! The only time I’ve ever been sprayed I totally deserved it. Hmm…I might feel a post coming on…

If you write about it, you’ll have to live with my comment about how I have never been sprayed by a skunk.

I could handle that, I think. Though I have a feeling it would be deliciously snarky!
