Livestock / Animal Husbandry / Text about skunks and their spraying as a defensive method | | English term or phrase: ".357 Magnun approach" | | When a skunk is being chased by a "predator" and is not exactly sure where the pursuer is located, the skunk, while running away will emit a cloud of spray in an atomised mist. The mist is light and takes a while to settle to the ground. A predator would run through this cloud and pick up the scent and usually stop pursuit. I call this the "shotgun approach". When the skunk is cornered or knows exactly where the predator is located, it emits the liquid in a stream that usually is directed towards the face. This intense spray will sting and temporarily blind the predator. I call this the ".357 Magnun approach". |
