Skunks adapt to food availability by being opportunistic omnivores, which allows them to consume a diverse diet that includes insects, fruits, small mammals, and plant material. Their keen sense of smell helps them locate food sources in various environments, while their foraging behavior enables them to take advantage of seasonal changes and food scarcity. Additionally, skunks may alter their foraging patterns based on competition and human activity, demonstrating flexibility in their feeding habits.
