Nice spotted skunk. I once trapped one in a live trap about 20 years ago. I caught him three days in a row and told myself that if caught him again a 4th time, then it would be his destiny to become a mount. At the time, I was busy in grad school, so I threw him in the freezer and left him there for about 8 years. Needless to say, I actually HIT the scent sack while skinning him out with a slip of the scalpel and the beast sprayed me after being frozen for 8 years!!!! Yes, he may have been dead, but he certainly got the last laugh!! I'll post a photo of him in the taxidermy section for fun in a day or two.

 

By the way, any more pics of the black bear?

 

 

here are some more of the bear....

 

I got it rolling around in the water for a bath, but you can't see it well because of the vegetation growing around the seep.

 

but I also got a pic of the bear on another cam in a nearby spot which is probably the same bear.

I trapped my spotted skunk the first three times with 9-Lives catfood from a can and the 4th magical time with a half-monster taco from Jack-in-the-Box, as I had forgotten my bait that day and had to sacrifice part of my lunch!

LOL

Cool spotted skunk. I have yet to see one.

 

I did have a striped skunk for a pet for about 8 years back in the '60's. They were legal back then.
