Yes, if they have no other way out and mother skunk can't dig them out. A person really stinks, if they would block baby skunks in a den. Peggy W

Den, usually under hollow trees, or caves.
Skunks give birth in dens. In nature, the den can be created from an inside an old log, under large rocks, or in another animals abandoned den such as a rabbit or groundhog hole. Unfortunately in crawl spaces under houses, under sheds, and around other human dwellings often make good shelters to create a den. Ultimately the dens will be in a quiet secluded area sheltered from the weather.
probably not. skunks have claws for digging, but they mostly dig for food. they also mostly use holes that were already dug as their den. making small holes like those aren't skunks' habbit
One meaning of den has the synonym lair.
The translation of "den" into French is "antre". This word is feminine. Thus, "la antre" would mean "the den," and "une antre" would mean "a den."
Raccoons and skunks may be seen about during winter months. During the coldest and snowiest times they remain in their den and sleep. It is not a true hibernation, however, as they may arise during less severe days and forage for food.
Skunks live in the woods, or meadows, or even towns. They can also live in caves. Usually they build their own den to sleep and live in.
If you are asking whether they move from a state with a cold climate to a warmer state, they generally do not. They are territorial creatures, and once they find a place to get food and raise their young, they tend to stay in that area, even if the weather gets stormy and cold. Skunks build a den and in bad weather, they will hibernate with other skunks, leaving their den when they need to find food. But if you are asking whether a skunk will only stay in one area, the answer is they are willing to find a new territory, especially if their current environment becomes inhospitable (not enough food, too many predators, humans who set traps for them, etc). But while skunks will move on, they generally do not travel extremely long distances if they don't have to.
No, it is not. The sentence would read "Looking out from your den you could see a wolf enter den". The second usage of den/quane should have a "the" in front of it. "Looking out from your den you could see a wolf enter the den." "Looking out from your quane you could see a wolf enter the quane." These would be correct.
Skunks don't migrate. As far as hibernation is concerned, the technical answer is no, because their metabolism doesn't slow down in the winter, but since they do hole up in a den and remain inactive for a large part of the winter, most people would just say yes, they hibernate.
