Hi!
Who are you?
I'm a skunk.
Skunks are small mammals.
Where do you live?
Skunks live in North and South America.
We like forests and mountains.
Some skunks live in cities.
I like your white stripes!
A lot of skunks have stripes.
Others have spots.
All skunks are black and white.
What do you eat?
Skunks eat bugs and small animals.
We also like plants and fruit.
Skunks look for food at night.
Where do you sleep?
Skunks sleep in hollow logs or holes.
Sometimes we sleep in other animals' homes.
We sleep during the day.
Do you have any enemies?
Owls sometimes hunt us.
But most animals stay away from us.
Why do they stay away from you?
Skunks can make a spray.
We shoot enemies with the spray.
The spray smells awful!
Uh-oh! I see a fox.
Stand back!
Good-bye, Skunk!
