history: A skunk was in my yard the other night...At first I was scared and froze..I didn't want to get sprayed but typically they just want you to leave them alone! Man he was C U T E though! A skunk was in my yard the other night...At first I was scared and froze Dang_comma_ those things are creepy! Did it go away?
current: Oh..I think they are wonderful! I LOVE wildlife..I just didn't want to get sprayed or my dog..Or for the skunk to get hurt by my dog! He was SO cute! Everything was fine- Dog came back in quick and the skunk waddled away- I think I surprised him! He was probably eating the bird seed :)
next: Yeah, they tend to be very timid creatures. I'm glad you didn't freak out and hit him with a shovel!
