Skunkum

Skunkum is an anthropomorphic dog.
==Description==
A conman of a real-estate agent, Skunkum was a swindler active in the uninhabited wilderness around Duckburg in the early 1950s. Having bought various empty, arid homesteads, he seeded them with false gems and sold them for “cheap” to gullible gem-hunters thinking they were outsmarting a random country bumpkin. 
He added Donald Duck to his tally in 1952, and Donald, after realising he'd been tricked, attempted to break even by trying the same scam on Gladstone Gander. This resulted in a clear missed opportunity for both Skunkum and Donald, as, due to Gladstone's luck, the new owner of the homestead ended up actually finding insanely valuable gems there (thanks to a gem-containing meteorite landing there).
==Behind the scenes==
Skunkum is the one-off main antagonist of the 1952 Carl Barks story Fortune-Hunting.
