Skunks:

Skunks are well-known for their potent defensive spray, which they use when threatened. Their bold black-and-white coloring warns predators to keep away. Omnivorous in diet, skunks feed on insects, small animals, fruits, and plants. They are mostly nocturnal, foraging at night and sheltering during the day in burrows or dens. Despite their smelly reputation, skunks help control insect and rodent populations.
