Here’s the worst I’ve ever seen.
Last year, on the road just past our drive way, someone hit a skunk. We saw it on the right side of the road. It was there for about 3 or 4 days. Then I noticed that it had been dragged to the opposite side of the road. I figured some scavenger was trying to eat it. The next time I went by in my car it looked as if the dead skunk was swarming with movement, but I couldn’t tell what it was. We parked the car at home and walked up to see. It was a whole litter of baby skunks. They were starving and trying to nurse off of the dead (squished) mother skunk. Two of them were trying to drag the dead momma back to their lair. It ripped my heart to think what those poor critters had been going through for the last few days.

The little skunks looked like they were old enough to eat solid food. We gave them some cat food and took them to a wild animal rescuer in the area who said that he would feed them until they were old enough to fend for themselves and then release in the wild again.
