Our panther biologists captured a funny scene on a trail camera in Collier County. Skunks will chase an animal (or human) away whenever they feel threatened, which may include when they have babies (kits). At the end of this video, you can even see the spotted skunk pop up into a handstand. Handstands are a unique way that spotted skunks look bigger to threats like bobcats!
