Striped polecats spray like skunks.
Primarily omnivorous, skunks will aslo scavenge human garbage and carcasses left by other animals. So yes, it is quite normal. Skunks are also known to scratch at the front of a beehive, then eat the guard bees that come out! See the Related Link listed below for more information:
Yes, wild animals can experience heart attacks, although it is not as common as in humans. Stress, injuries, infections, and genetic conditions can contribute to heart attacks in wild animals.
wild animals such as lowland gorillias!
If they are not a protected species animals are often a natural resource
Animals in the wild breeding, such as squirrels, rabbits, deer, elephants, etc., are not selective breeding (artificial selection).
Yes, they are. Very few skunks have ever been tamed or kept as pets.
Usually skunks are the only animal who have a long record of doing this. There are other animals like the grey and red fox that spray their urine or musk to deter predators. Most animals spray urine to mark territory. Wild house cats have been know to spray also. However, in most of these cases, the culprit is usually the dog. Dogs have a tendency to want to roll in a scent as part of their hunting instinct. It is an age old tradition by deer hunters to cut a full bladder of urine out of a deer and save it to mask human scent for the hunt. Humans learned this technique from animals themselves.
Sure
if you mean the looks, that'll probably not change much. if you mean their status, it may be that there will be less wild skunks and more pet skunks. however, it is possible to have little in the wild and nobody keeping pet skunks. spotted skunks may be endangered greatly in the future
If they are wild animals (not pets like dogs or cats) they are known as 'road kill'. This would include deer, possums, skunks, turtles, armadillos, etc.
Skunks, Wild dogs/canines, snakes, and large birds such as, hawks, eagles, and crows
Not in the wild - only pet skunks here
There are many animals in the central plains of Texas, domesticated and wild, and also exotic. Assuming the question refers to wild animals, there are deer, feral pigs, badgers, porcupines, skunks, and many varieties of birds, lizards and aquatic species.

Cats and skunks may or may not get along. Most likely they will not. Most cats are VERY territorial and they will fight, and the skunk most likely will spray the cat. It depends on your cat. Young cats and cats that are use to sharing their territory with other cats ( or sharing their food) will most likely get along fine with a wild skunk, and even better with a pet skunk. But... It's not a good idea to let your cat around a wild skunk because of rabies. and if you have a wild skunk coming into your yard, sooner or later it will start to smell, even if the skunk doesnt spray, it will eventually urinate, sit down, or otherwise rub its glands across something.
deer, wolves, bears, wild boar, foxes, squirrels, badgers, skunks, owls, finches and warblers,
No. Cats would probably eat baby chicks if they could get close to them but generally cats do not eat eggs.
