Last night I watched a Skunk & possum fight over some scraps of food The Possum just bulldozed its way to the food, where the Skunk had already staked a claim At which point the Skunk repeatedly headbutted the Possum (A large one) which the Possum mostly ignored & was clearly unafraid of getting sprayed by the Skunk it was for the most part, a shoving match which went on for about 10 minutes. None of the beasties did any real damage to each other, but it was a real nature show to say the least & Skunks are actually pretty cute animals.
