However, a decent sized roo can right off a car. They smell much worse than burnt rubber my friend. Its an old family favorite lol there are plenty of skunks around here. Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on.

CFM tsunkasapa Posted May 5, 2023 CFM Report Posted May 5, 2023 Not really. While skunks CAN cause a stink (pun not intended), for the most part they do not. As a kid I had 6 baby skunks that lived in the wood shed, ate with our cats , and let us pet and hold them. They stayed around the farm for several years. Hoka Hey!

Members Sheilajeanne Posted May 5, 2023 Members Report Posted May 5, 2023 So, how DO you catch and skin a skunk without causing the fur to stink? Won't a skunk let go its scent glands if it's caught in a trap?
Members Handstitched Posted May 6, 2023 Members Report Posted May 6, 2023 I found this. Quite baffling , and damn funny too. https://au.news.yahoo.com/jersey-baffled-mountain-cooked-pasta-184611713.html "Another user added: “Lead suspect is a guy named Al Dente,” another commented. That totally cracked me up . I guess someone would have to pasta shell out' a lot of money to clean it up. But I think this story is rigged- atoni . Obviously the offender is no ' Angel ' hair pasta and a bit of a ' noodle head ' Perhaps the offender should ' Man icotti up . All we need now is 1/2 ton of pasta sauce, 1/4 ton of garlic bread and a few cases of red wine Anyone from New Jersey on here ?? Fill us in ??

Won't a skunk let go its scent glands if it's caught in a trap? i was strong armed once by a skunk. One night when we were hunting, we were all in my lodge ( native American teepee) drinkin beer having a great time cooking pork chops. I had my cooler setting near the door with the package of chops setting out on top. Well this big old skunk smells them i guess and decides he wants a pork chop too and comes waddling right in and grabs one sets down on his butt and starts to munching away right in the middle of the doorway. Guess what four big bad elk hunters do when that happens? They stand wide eyed and wondering what the hell to do next lol. Cant get out, cant yell, cant hit it or your whole tent and you and all your gear will be stinky forever. We just stood there watching him eat pretty soon when he got good and ready I swear he smiled flipped us off and then moseyed on off with the rest of his chop. A person doesn't really know what the most respected animal in the woods are until your face to face with a skunk man they have the power IMO. They are really rude critters and don't care if you like them or want them to leave and there isn't shit you can do about it lol. The next night he came in again while i was sleeping. Third night we went skunk hunting lol. That's the tale of two skunks camp.

Members Sheilajeanne Posted May 6, 2023 Members Report Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Oh, that's funny! Chuck, reminds me of this photo: Most of my skunk encounters have involved skunks and dogs that didn't know any better... I can report the Skunk Remedy (hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and a little dish soap) works REALLY well...and that some dogs just DO NOT LEARN! The one house we were renting, we had a backyard neighbour with a skunk nest under the porch. The neighbour had decided to just let them be. Twice while we were living there, one of the young ones fell into our window well. Our dog alerted us to it, and fortunately we noticed before anything bad happened to her! (I'm sure the skunk was reluctant to spray when it was in a confined space, too.) We tried (very carefully) putting a 2x4 down into the window well, but the youngster couldn't get a good grip on it. Then, we thought of an old piece of carpet we had somewhere, and didn't want anymore. That did the trick, though the skunk did spray just a tiny bit while I was putting the carpet into the well. Fortunately, the smell didn't last, as it wasn't a full blast! Edited May 6, 2023 by Sheilajeanne
