They could be the forest police. Older skunk with few trainees. She said hello to the cyclist (by putting her paw on his shoe), she then checked the tire pressure in front wheel and that was it. Judging by the color or uniform/fur they could really be the police. I'm not sure. I got little confused when she said "this is a large human mammal...".

Nothing halts everyone in their tracks like a wandering skunk! In the late 1960s my family went to a production of “The Shepherd of the Hills” at Silver Dollar City. You had to walk down a dirt trail to get to the rustic outdoor amphitheater with split-log benches for the audience, which was set in the middle of a woods. About halfway through the play, the actors suddenly stopped speaking and froze in place, as if someone had pushed the pause button on a TV remote. It soon became evident why: a skunk had wandered onstage, where it proceeded to sniff around curiously, checking out the actors as they remained motionless. The audience also quieted as people became aware of the visitor, and everyone - including kids like me - became perfectly still when the skunk left the stage and went down into the audience, taking its time meandering down the center aisle and often pausing to examine the shoes of some nervous person. Its curiosity satisfied, it finally wandered down the trail and disappeared into the woods, at which point the actors unfroze and resumed the play exactly where they had left off. Very funny in retrospect!

[@mandycleezehappyhour4238]

the power that skunk wielded! what a great story. thanks for sharing!

[@etherraichu]

People should stop being so nervous around skunks. they only ever spray people if they feel threatened and are cornered. Like most animals if it doesn't feel safe in a situation, it will just run away.

[@briarmason8737]

[@icarus4302]

I'm constantly reminded how small minded people can be. As someone who grew up in the country, all animals are such curious and passive creatures if you give them reason to be. I met a juvenile skunk July 4th, he was at first startled of course, but once he realized I was less scary than the fireworks he just sat and chilled with me until they stopped. I saw a deer crossing an empty road early morning, and although she definitely didn't trust me at first. Me standing still caused her to become curious, had my sister not gotten so excited she probably would've walked right up to us instead of hopping away. My Dad saw a mountain lion deep in the trail. They were equally surprised as each other. He remained calm, and it gave him a sniff from a few hundred feet away, and decided he wasn't trouble so they walked back into the forest. It's not as simple as, "smell this" "do this." All animals are intelligent. And rule number one of the animal kingdom, eye for an eye. You stay calm, I stay calm. You start causing a ruckus, I cause a ruckus. You try to attack, I'll try to attack. You'd be surprised how far simple empathy can take you.

This makes it harder for birds of prey to pick out a target.

I would not have believed it if I had not smelled it myself. Your heart almost fails you when you approach the animal" charles darwin wrote: "If a dog is urged to the attack, its courage is instantly checked by a few drops of the fetid oil, which brings on violent sickness and running at the nose. Whatever is once polluted by it, is for ever useless." it's almost impossible to describe the smell. it's like burning cabbage, burning rubber, vinegar, celery, farts, and paint fumes, ALL AT ONCE. the smell hits you like a battering ram--it has an almost physical presence.

Best thing to do with skunks is just stand still and not panic or react. They are very intelligent and can sense tension.

[@crossgear3042]

Skunks are so cute. I remember when i was in the army there was a skunk that lived under the barracks and would come out and sit on the bench with me when i was waiting to be picked up for the day. He was really old and pure white and i think he was someones pet at one point because he never sprayed. He was the barracks mascot. Id sit there and pet him while i waited. Apparently his name was minnow. Not sure why but thats what everyone called him. Awesome little dude.

The way they sniff at him and don't look up made me wonder what a skunk's eyesight is like. Googling it, it turns out they have poor eyesight and will approach people who are standing still. I wonder if they just saw him as some object in the middle of the road and didn't even realize it was a living being.

[@shinigamilee5915]

I grew up in the country and skunks are well known for having diseases. Many of them are rabid and you have to be exceptionally careful around skunks. I've never been sprayed bad enough, but I learned early on to keep your distance. And sometimes being out in the country that's really hard because they suddenly sneak up on you. They're hilariously funny the way they jump through the weeds so you just see them almost popping up out of the weeds and then back down and then hopping back up again. But I would never ever want anyone to get close to an animal like this. Just can't believe they didn't spray him. I've been six feet away and they've started to spray before. And you just run the other way. As fast as you can because that smell carries. Even if you didn't get sprayed you will smell for weeks.
