The specie I have here is the Mephitis P.I.T.A. skunk. I startled one a few nights ago at dark. It ran up inside the downspout extension on the shed. The opening is probably about 3" x 4". I blocked the end with a cinder block and decided to wait till morning to give my evil mind time to work. When I went out the next morning, the skunk had wiggled the extension just enough to create a 2" gap by the block and had made The Great Escape. Grrrrr! Did Elmer Fudd ever do battle with anything besides wabbits?
I walked outside this morning and found two of these little spotted guys bedded by the driveway. I just noticed what looks to be another one over in the neighbor's junk. I think I need to move out in the country where I hunt. Judging by my recent lack of success, there doesn't appear to be any deer or rabbits there any more. LOL
