Skunks - Part 2, 3, 4 and 5

The skunk whisperer's trap caught the babies today.  He said he brought the same trap that their mom was caught in, so the must have smelled her scent and all ran in together.  The babies are so cute, if only they didn't stink!

 trying to get out of the cage

 once we got a closer look, there were FIVE babies (I had only seen 3 the day before)

Hopefully, this ends our skunk adventure.  One more trap will be set...just to make sure no babies have been left behind!

A Stinky Situation

We've had a visitor hanging around our house for a couple of weeks now.  One morning, I saw her scurry under the sidewalk leading to our front door.  We called the Wildlife Resource Agency and they set a trap.  Late last night, she was caught!  Thank goodness!

she was not happy to be in the cage

 look closely and you'll see a baby trying to get to it's momma

 oh no, there are two babies!!!

  they just keep multiplying...now there are 3 baby skunks

The babies were so cute and pitiful crying for their momma.  Before the skunk whisperer could come pick up the momma skunk, the babies had gone back underground.
