Summary:
Skunks spray a smelly musk on its enemies that can sting their eyes or make them sick. Phew! But skunks don't always need to make a stink to keep enemies away. Their unique black-and-white stripes warn animals that have been sprayed before to stay away. That is, unless they want to stink! Fun text and eye-catching photos introduce the animal in all its gross glory. Provided by publisher.
