Last nite, July 31st, 2008, a skunk pooped in my courtyard around 4:00am. I went out after sunrise to pick it up. I WAS SO SURPRISED at the amount of worms in his/her poop. I would say that the poop was comprised of 60% worms and 40% food. The best way that I can describe it is that it looked like a white and black rice ball. I felt badly for the little guy. Does anyone know if this is normal? Or should I be concerned about my outside domesticated cats? Or if my dog got hold of any poop in the yard?
A Skunk is an omnivore.
If you came across this skunk somewhere in the U.S., Mexico or southern Canada, it is probably simply the common skunk seen everywhere in these areas. It is not unusual for this skunk to have a double stripe that joins at the forehead. Its Latin binomial name is Mephitis mephitis.
poop, its dried poop!
Poop may contain various chemicals and compounds, but primarily water. When exposed to cold temperatures, the water in poop can freeze, leading to the formation of frozen poop.
A skunk smell could also be caused by gas leaks, certain plants like the skunk cabbage, or other animals like some breeds of pet ferrets, who have a scent similar to skunks. It can also be perceived as a symptom of certain medical conditions in humans, such as metabolic disorders.
no
Obviously yes, just like any other type of defication.
I would say urine or feces regardless of the animal would be toxic. Especially as urine alone contains ammonia.
Black with white markings, from a distance, they can resemble a skunk. See related link for a picture.
A striped skunk
Simple. God made the first man (and skunk) and that man who was named Adam named the skunk "Skunk!"
A skunk doesn't have a main preadator. A skunk sprays or attacks anything that threatens to kill it or frighten the skunk.
A skunk hollow is a shallow burrow made by a skunk, where it sleeps.
