I hate finding skunks around the house....I have seen only one this year, but it was in the middle of the day....not a good sign.....these are night scavengers and when they start showing up in broad daylight, you may be dealing with an animal that has rabies.....there was one in my driveway, by my car. He was just sitting there, and did not leave when we approached the car. Fortunately, we really were not on a schedule so we just came inside and waited for him to leave on his own....animal control would not come out and deal with it, and I personally am not equipped to deal with a possibly rabid skunk, so he eventually ambled off down the street. I do NOT like unresolved issues, and was not happy about the way I had to deal with this.....still dont know what else I should have done. |
