　　Actually, one time, I ran into a skunk in America. It was a black and white animal which releases an unpleasant smelling liquid if it is frightened or attacked. They have moderately elongated bodies with relatively short, well-muscled legs and long front claws for digging. Although the most common fur color is black and white, some skunks are brown and gray and a few are cream colored. All skunk are stripes, even from birth. They may have a single thick stripe across the back and tail, two thinner stripes, or a series of white spots and broken stripes. They are omnivorous, eating both plant and animal material and changing their diets as the seasons change.

　　Actually, they are one of the primary predators of the honeybee, relying on their thick fur to protect them from stings. It was actually my first time seen a skunk in the flesh and it was just so interesting. They won’t attack people when not threatened. It’s quite cute and I actually spent some time to try and bond with it. It didn’t work out.
