    Skunks are small mammals with black and white fur that grow 5 to 15 inches long. They have bushy tails and small ears. Their adaptations include the ability to spray a foul-smelling liquid called musk as a defense against predators. Skunks eat insects, worms, mice, lizards, frogs, fruits, nuts, leaves and grass. They typically live alone and prefer habitats like grasslands, deserts, and backyards, where they rest in dens or burrows.
