Summary: The skunk is part of the Mephitidae family. They are best known for the odor they give off. They are mostly black and white, brown, and cream. Some of the subfamily members are badgers, otters, and weasels. Skunks live in South America, Canada, Philippines, and Indonesia. They can be from 40 to 90 cm. They can weigh from .50 kg to 8.2 kg. They eat insects, larvae, earthworms, moles, and other small rodents. They also eat roots, berries, and nuts.
Critique: I do not like skunks because of the odor they give off. It is the worst smell I’ve ever smelled in my whole life.
Impact: The impact they have on the Earth is a negative one because of the odor they give off. If they didn’t give off such a horrible smell, the impact would be positive because they would only affect the food chain.
