Have you ever seen a skunk? They are mammals from the Mephitidae family.
I've never seen one in real life! This is so interesting, I don't know much about them.
They are mostly known for their ability to spray a liquid with a bad smell to scare away predators.
Yeah that's something really unique about them. I wonder where they can be found, in which places.
There are different species across much of the world. Most are black and white but some are brown and cream colored.
I've never heard of brown and cream colored ones. I wish I could see one! They are fascinating animals.
Skunks are omnivorous, which means they eat plants and animals, depending on what they can find in the different seasons. Some people take skunks as a pet.
Oh so they are pretty much like humans when it comes to food preference. That would be amazing to have a skunk as a pet, unless they got scared.
