I have my mother to thank for emailing me this one. I recall reading somewhere that great horned owls are the main predator of skunks -they swoop in silently and "skltertch!" with the talons before the skunk has even a chance to think of spraying. I can really believe it now!

It's a pity I can't get one or two over here to see to a pesky raccoon that keeps bumping my satellite dish!
