Skunks Heather Skunks hardly ever fight with other skunks. Skunks are very playful. Skunks are about eleven to fifteen inches long not counting their tail. Skunks are not picky eaters. They eat fruit, corn, frogs, turtle eggs, bird eggs, moles, chipmunks, shrews, and rabbits.
Skunks can eat wasps, bees and their honey without getting stung.
The skunk has a weapon called the stink. He does not use it to be mean, just to protect himself. He doesn't make sneak attacks. He'll warn you. A skunk might meet something that might hurt him so he stands very still.
