Skunks like all the members of the Mustelidae produce musk. But unlike the other members, skunks are able to spray the musk as far as 5-6 ft. The musk then becomes a defense mechanism and is an effective repellent against many predators. The musk not only smells bad, but when it hits the eyes of an animal, it burns.
