What is your favorite thing about skunks? And did you know it existed? I first found out about the event a few years ago.

It used to exist but the website seems to be broken now. Is the newsletter still active or is it dead?

The site "Striped Bandits" died in 2022 or so and was replaced with a raccoon comic. What did you think of the old 2005-2016 era website? Did you use its forum back in the day? I remember reading about it.

Here's yet another news article about pet skunks. What do you think of them? Do you think they should be pets at all?

Apparently they have come to the conclusion that skunk stripes are different based on the area and how many predators there are. It's nice to know more about my favorite animals.

Sometimes skunks are called polecats. Apparently Skuntank has a cat like face because skunks are sometimes called polecats.

Have you seen this article before?

Do you have plans to go to Ohio to visit Skunk Fest? I'm not interested in going there to visit the event, but are you?

Apparently in 2013 there was reports of a woman having 50 pet skunks. The first skunk she had was gotten around the year 2000. She is also claimed to be the starter of the annual "SkunkFest" event, too - I had no idea she was linked to that event. News reports quote her as saying she calls her home "Skunk Haven" which is also the name of an online website, by the way.

The handstand is a warning before they spray.

I believe it's an eastern spotted. Not my pic.

They seem like a cool and smart animal species to me. I remember seeing that post of them using a rock like a tool.
