Field Notes

Description:

My brother took these cute pictures. My mother said, "Here our skunk and her six little skunklets. Never thinks of spraying. None of them do.’
They eat with the raccoons who also have babies. All moms are alike; love their kids and never mean harm to people unless abused in some way.You should see the waddling away. Cute as heck
