They DO grow huge. I was told Jackie was humongous when full grown. I hadn't seen him in a long time and didn't see him when he was killed. We'd moved to Beausejour then.

BC seems to grow REALLY BIG skunks ... give them lots of room when you spot them and their little babies walking across your lawn.

I've always heard that KETCHUP was good to slather on animals sprayed by a skunk, to try and get rid of the smell. I don't know if this actually works.
