Animals spray to "mark" their territory, and also to deter their predators.
Skunks use their strong-smelling spray as a defense mechanism against predators. When threatened, skunks can release a noxious spray from their anal glands that can deter potential attackers with its foul odor.
All I know is that skunks have striped fur. Am i right
Skunks do. I don't know if there are others.
The anal gland secretions of a skunk are typically described as having a foul odor often likened to that of feces. Skunks use this spray as a defense mechanism against potential threats.
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.
Skunks are animals the spray.
Some other wild animals that spray like skunks include hooded skunks, spotted skunks, and stink badgers. They use this defense mechanism to ward off predators and threats.
Stinkbugs have odors.
No. Skunks spray when they feel very threatened.
No it is skunks that spray.
Skunks spray when they feel threatened, so if the skunk is already dead, there would be no reason to spray.
When in danger, skunks are known for their ability to spray a repulsive gas from their behinds.
no
when cornered they will
yes they do
Great Horned Owls are immune to the skunk's spray so it is easy prey. Also, animals like Bobcats love to have skunk for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Poor skunks.
Skunks can be 8 days old before they can spray. Its their only defence against predators
