skunks are mammals in the family called mephitidae. ever seen a skunk in person?
Yes, unfortunately.  They are quite stinky.
they can actually have difference appearances from black and white to brown, cream, or ginger colored. they all have warning coloration, most people think they can only be black and white.
That's interesting. What is their skunk spray used for?
protection and harming their enemies, like us haha. also skunk has been used as an insult historically since 1841.
That would not be cool to be called a skunk.  Do they always have a stripe on their back?
good question, yes, from birth on they are all striped.
Cool. Do they have them in other countries beside the USA?
im not exactly sure about that one i would have to get back to you but i can tell you about their eating habits. they are omnivorous so they eat both plants and animals. they change their diet as the seasons change
