I Love Skunks Large Tote Bag

I Love Skunks Skunks are mammals best known for their ability to secrete a liquid with a strong, foul-smelling odour. General appearance ranges from species to species, from black-and-white to brown or cream coloured. Skunks belong to the family Mephitidae[1][2] and to the order Carnivora. There are 10 species of skunks, which are divided into four genera: Mephitis (hooded and striped skunks, two species), Spilogale (spotted skunks, two species), Mydaus (stink badgers, two species), and Conepatus (hog-nosed skunks, four species). The two skunk species in the Mydaus genus inhabit Indonesia and the Philippines; all other skunks inhabit the Americas from Canada to central South America. Skunks were classified as a subfamily within the family Mustelidae, which includes ferrets, weasels, otters and badgers. However, recent genetic evidence suggests that the skunks are not as closely related to the mustelids as previously thought; they are now classified in their own family.[2]
