In general, skunks keep to themselves and do very little harm, if any. They can be beneficial when they eat pest insects or rodents. Nevertheless, people sometimes kill them or forcibly relocated them. When the presence of a skunk just can’t be tolerated, relocation is certainly the most humane approach. Skunks are charming animals that are a pleasure to observe, if you are lucky enough to have the opportunity. Because they are so confident in their ability to ward off predators, skunks are more relaxed around humans than are many other mammals. They are gentle and easy-going, compared to their hyperactive weasel relatives. Many people even have skunks as pets. There’s really no need to fear skunks or condemn them as smelly nuisances. We should instead celebrate them as the fascinating, resourceful animals that they are. metrofieldguide/on-being-misunderstood-striped-skunk/
