Skunk School Learn Why Not To Keep Skunks As Pets
By
Animal Rampage
There is an alarming trend in pet purchasing habits this fall. People inspired by the WWII film, "Life is Beautiful" the one with that annoying Italian guy are buying descented skunks by the millions. Unassuming parents are procuring the cute and fuzzy skunk puppies for their children not realizing that they grow up to be wild pack animals that are intelligent, blood thirsty hunters. They are also vengeful, have a highly developed bird-call-like language, and cannot be properly disciplined with a spray bottle. As a public service Spock Mountain Research Labs is posting this warning and guide to skunk behavior. It is our hope that this article will ward off more domestic skunk disasters. When skunks are in the weanling stage, they are cute and moist, and children cannot resist them. They do not realize that these creatures grow up to have shark-like teeth and claws meant for separating flesh from vertebrae. Skunk owners are often surprised to find that a skunk will pass up a perfectly good "skunk pan," and instead eliminate on their furniture, walls, or other surfaces. Descented skunks never forgive human beings for taking their stink power, and will constantly urinate throughout the home. This can lead to unsanitary living quarters for your children, and your little ones might even get a rhinovirus.

42. Allegheny National Forest -- Skunks, Descenting
The next spring I put a wild male skunk on with her to breed, but he dugan escape tunnel and they eloped. I haven’t desecented wild skunks.
http://www.allegheny-online.com/wooodshickskunks.html
Skunks By The Woods Hick (reprinted with Author's permission) It all started when my friend caught three young skunks. I knew an old woodsman who descented them (I could write a book about him). So, I drove out to his place and held the young skunks while he descented them. In the process, I learned how to do it myself. She was very friendly and a nice pet, but her feces did have a strong odor and she kept me up all night with her scampering around. So, I moved her out to an old chicken house. The next spring I put a wild male skunk on with her to breed, but he dug an escape tunnel and they eloped. I never did see her again. Skunks are night prowlers. They eat bugs, mice, and other small animals, fruit and berries among other things. They are about two feet long including their tail and their color is mostly black with a bit of white on their heads and usually two white stripes down the back. The amount of white varies greatly with a scarcity of them in some years and seeming over-abundance in others. In the late winter the males start searching for females to mate with. Here in northern Pennsylvania, it’s usually about the middle of February. Back when my friend had his descented female skunk, I would wait for a winter thaw in February and go looking for skunk tracks in the snow. Locating skunk signs in an area, I’d set a box trap to catch a male skunk. Once caught, it would be moved very carefully to the pen with the descented female and released in the pen with her. A few weeks later I’d remove the "live" male, again very carefully, and let him go.

BOBCAT
Many people are unaware that the wild bobcat is native to Ohio. Not only is it native but it presently exists, though in very small numbers, in mostly southern regions of this state. It is quite sad to have one of our own native species, so endangered, that it has never even been seen by most. Another of our endangered species, the bobcat has succumbed to the same fate caused by deforestation as many of our other wild inhabitants, be it bird, reptile, amphibian, mammal, insect and even plant. Bobcats require large, unbroken tracts of forest encompassing hundreds of acres, for hunting and breeding territories. It's the same old story, but a real one - those forests are gone. Our bobcat was released into the wild by her former owners, with all four of her feet declawed! And she was released in a part of Ohio where no bobcats live. She had discovered some domestic geese on a farm and was able to capture and kill a few, before being discovered by the farmer. A concerned rehabber convinced him to let them live trap her and she now will live the rest of her life out at "BACK TO THE WILD". In captivity, she could live 30 years! She is doing very well here on a diet of raw turkey, chicken, some beef, rodents and rabbits or squirrels that have died from their injuries. She would not do well on commercial cat food and in fact refuses to eat it. She is quite small for a wild cat, weighing only 22 lbs., which is average for her species. Her cage requirements are a lot of room, staggered shelves at different heights, hollow logs and open areas to bask in as well as cool, shaded areas. We have planted lots of tall grasses and bamboo in her pen and she enjoys jumping and hiding in them. Visitors sometimes can hear her purring loudly, as she checks them out through the wire - but if they could only see her at feeding time - she is a wild animal and always will be!

How To Attract Birds
Once upon a time, I thought all birds looked alike and that they were all named "sparrows" or some such name. (The animation above is a Chipping Sparrow that was visiting my Coral Honeysuckle.) I couldn't have imagined the multitude of colors and body shapes and flight patterns and sizes and songs that would begin to emerge once I began to pay a little attention to my surroundings. I had neglected to notice what a vivid world of butterflies , wild birds, spiders other insects reptiles amphibians and mammals was right outside my door offering an endless supply of surprises and lessons. I was amazed at how easily I could make a few adjustments to my yard only to see it change from a near "ghost town" into a miniature universe bursting at the seams with life.

Pet Skunk Info
If you keep in mind that they are wild animals, skunks can make great pets! The first thing folks want to know is if they stink or not. Actually, they usually don't! Skunks that are obtained from a breeder have had their musk glands removed at a very young age. However, de-scented skunks occasionally can produce a musky sort of smell. A healthy de-scented skunk shouldn't smell at all normally though. Some folks actually keep pet skunks that still have their musk glands and do not have any major problems with them. This is certainly not recommended though! Skunks are kind of intelligent too and they are excellent at catching mice!
The best kind of pet skunk to have is the striped skunk rather than the spotted or hog-nosed type. Legality Of Keeping A Pet Skunk The legality of keeping a wild pet will vary in different areas. You need to find out what the laws are in your state. You're not allowed to de-scent a wild skunk.

BACK TRANSCRIPT
INTRODUCTION
I'm Marty Stouffer. When we were kids growing up here in Arkansas, our parents were very understanding. They let us keep orphaned wild baby animals as pets 'till they were old enough to release on their own. There was Stanley the beaver. He lived in the bathtub, nibbling willow branches, and Leona the owl soared through the house as she was learning how to fly. Foxy the fox shared the food dish with our family dog. I learned a lot watching these babies. But the wild baby around the house these days is my daughter Hannah. She can't seem to keep her nose out of things.
Curiosity and exploration are all part of growing up for both human and animal children. Just as with human babies, childhood is the age of delight, exploration, and discovery for animal babies. But, unlike humans, the fragile creatures of the wild face great danger. To live, they must graduate from the toughest school of allthe school of survival.
Many people study animals in hopes of gaining insight into human behavior why we do the things we do. I believe we can learn a great deal about the nature of all life by experiencing this most wonderful age of innocence.
Journey with me to the world of "WILD BABIES".

The Story of Two Skunks Return to News Page I have four dogs: two hounds-types who wandered into the sanctuary , in different years, after the fall hunts were over - and two from the Humane Society (the best source of good dogs.) Brodie is a border collie cross, given to me because she had been dragging a dead leg (she had been hit by a car) for months before her owners turned her over to the Society. The leg has since been amputated, and Brodie does not seem to realize she is handicapped. The fourth dog, Kelly, is a huskyX, and is my own fault. I was visiting the Humane Society for some other reason, and this puppy smiled at me . . . . .Brodie barks a LOT. Kelly is a very quiet dog. But Kelly was barking. Not frantically, but steadily . . on and on. Finally, abandoning whatever work I was doing, I went down to the dog pen to see what was causing the uncharacteristic behavior. Brodie was sitting by the fence, quietly contemplating the valley. Kelly had her nose stuck deep in a clump of burdocks - and kept on barking. So into the pen I went. Kelly stepped back politely while I pulled the burdock aside. There, down amongst the roots, was a very small skunk. Tail up. Old enough to spray just a little bit. But, despite the prolonged aggravation, she had not sprayed. Kelly looked up and wagged her tail.. I told her what a good dog she was.

Wild Heart Ranch: A story of dedication, courage, and love.
Regular readers of this little column are probably wondering, "What happened to the humor stuff?" Bear with me. The grins and chuckles shall return next month but this story is one that needs telling and there is a bit of urgency involved. I have had the great good fortune to photograph several fascinating animals at this facility. This is my way of giving something back. "MOM, THERE'S A POSSUM IN MY HAIR." It was Annette's daughter calling from her bedroom. "That's when I knew things were getting out of hand," says Annette King, founder of the Wild Heart Ranch, a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center located near Claremore, Oklahoma. She continues: "My entire household was being overrun with animals. Somehow I had to figure a way to add a room to the house and dedicate it solely to caring for the critters." And typically, she did. Upon hearing of her plight, friends, neighbors, and relatives chipped in money, time, and supplies to erect a fully functional clinic. "I couldn't have continued without this room. It's a dream come true, she says". The mission of a wildlife rehabilitator is to care for sick, injured, or orphaned animals, with the goal of releasing them back to the wild as soon as possible. Ones with severe injuries are either kept for use in public awareness programs or humanely euthanized. The rehabber's work is hard, dirty, and demanding. Few have the dedication for such an endeavor. Annette King has it. This is her story.

(510) 981-CITY For Immediate Release Rabid Bat Found In Berkeley Berkeley, California (Wednesday, March 31, 2004) – A bat infected with rabies was recently found in the area of 1900 block of Ninth Street in the City of Berkeley. Although the bat was removed without incident, residents in Berkeley and the surrounding areas are advised that Alameda County has been a “Rabies Area” since 1958. In Berkeley, bats and skunks are the most likely animals to be infected, although unimmunized dogs, foxes, coyotes, badgers, weasels, raccoons and unvaccinated cats can also carry the rabies virus. Rabies infection is virtually always fatal in man so it is critical that people know how to prevent infection: Avoid skunks and bats. Do not handle dead wild animals. Educate your children about the dangers of wild animals and warn them not to touch any animal they do not know.

A. Rabies is an infection of the brain caused by a virus. The disease is usually fatal, but fortunately is rare in humans in the United States. About two human cases per year have occurred in recent years. Nearly 1,000 cases of rabies are reported annually in domestic animals while more than 5,000 cases of rabies are reported in wild animals. Rabies appears to come in cycles; peak years reporting more than five times the cases of an average year. This makes it even more important that domestic animals be vaccinated annually. Q. How is rabies transmitted?
A. Rabies is usually transmitted from the bite of an infected animal. Transmission is also possible by contamination with infectious saliva through a break in the skin. Occasionally, farmers and veterinarians are exposed while treating cattle and horses.
Foxes, raccoons and skunks are more likely to be infected with the virus.
