Stink the landing…🦨 Good form, skunk. Spotted skunks are the smaller relatives of the common striped skunk. About the size of a squirrel, these elusive carnivores live across North America. And when the time comes to scare off a predator, these little stinkers perform a handstand and kick out their back legs. If the handstand fails to intimidate (wow, nothing?), a pair of scent glands out back will spray a foul-smelling musk. Image: So stinkin’ cute! This spotted skunk at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is doing a handstand to warn off predators. #skunk #nationalparkservice #organpipecactus #wildlife #nature
