Baby skunks play pretty rough at this age (about seven weeks), with lots of wrestling and yanking of fur. The female with thinner stripes participates in the wrestling occasionally, but usually prefers to be off doing her own thing - a personality trait that was apparent even before her eyes were open. It will be another month or so before these orphans are ready for release.
