The Chamber of Commerce doesn't include skunks in their literature. Man has been coexisting with the little black and white beasts for gazillions of years. You would think we would become acclimated to their smell, but the last time you smelled a skunk is just as bad as the first time. Outside of their odoriferous moniker, they're really pretty useful creatures. They eat mice and roaches and other things people don't like.
Animal behaviorists say they stink the place up as a last resort in their self defense.
Before they unleash the heavy artillery, they'll offer a high pitched squeal and stamp their feet and even run away if they're not cornered. If you could ever get close enough to look, you would see they are quite cute. There's not much you can do about the smell, either. All the Glade in the world doesn't help. All air freshener does is create a sort of flowery skunk smell.
