There are three species of Skunk popular in New Jersey:

  • Striped/hooded skunks.

  • The spotted skunk

  • The stink badgers

  • The hog-nosed skunks

Skunks are mammals, usually black-and-white fur and there are eleven species of skunks. Skunks are unbelievably intelligent animals and are very sensitive with temperament variation for each one of them. The skunk is like a ferret because their curiosity can lead them into danger, especially if they crawl inside small areas or machinery.

Skunks are reluctant to use their smelly weapon, as they carry just enough of the chemical for five or six uses—about 15 cc—and require some ten days to produce another supply. Their bold black and white coloring however serves to make the skunk's appearance memorable. Where practical, it is to a skunk's advantage to simply warn a threatening creature off without expending scent: the black and white warning color aside, threatened skunks will go through an elaborate routine of hisses and foot stamping and tail-high threat postures before resorting to the spray. Interestingly, skunks will not spray other skunks (with the exception of males in the mating season); though they fight over den space in autumn, they do so with tooth and claw.

In case of a skunk bite, follow medical precautions against rabies or other infection. Alco Animal & Pest Control provides full skunk removal and control services in NJ.
