You may remember the trailcam footage of a porcupine that hated getting its paws wet in the small woodland stream we have on the property. So my wife built a tiny bridge which it promptly started using.
Since then a bunch of furry friends have used the bridge, often going out of their ways to get across.
So enjoy this little skunk crossing the “mighty river.”

Another fun fact from the Canadian Potato Museum: "... a sure sign of indication of white grub infestation is the presence of skunks in the potato field. They dig up the tubers to eat the grubs." #potatoes #pei #farming #gardening #tuber #skunks #beetles #museum #agriculture #PrinceEdwardIsland
@NorcalGma2 #Dogs have absolutely no understanding of #skunks & #porcupines, which is why they always get into trouble when confronting them. 
Getting #skunked is awful but it's not painful nor potentially fatal. A face (or muzzle, nose & mouth) full of porcupine quills is another matter.
Hope Summer enjoyed her bath(s).

Sheena is a Skunk Rocker
One of the local #skunks, the one we call the Punk Skunk, because she's bright white from brow to brush. No stripes, other than the one on her nose. Well, today she came by with the band.
This family of #skunks ! An evening’s worth of entertainment. The cutest things ever.
I got some better shots of a baby skunk! They're so stinking cute!
There are three baby skunks in the storm drain under my driveway. They are so unbelievably cute. I love skunks so much 
I’ve read about a skunk charge but never seen one, until now. It’s the last warning before a spray. Lucky turkeys got off easy. #skunks
It's #HootinTootinTuesday again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to #Mastodon.
The two little skunks from under our porch have been reunited with their family. #animals #skunks #UrbanWildlife
