Description | Description:Raccoons are bear-like mammals that were once exclusively found in North America but now live in Japan and Europe as well. They have what appears to be a black mask surrounding their eyes. Their front paws are so dexterous that they can turn door knobs, untie knots, and open jars. | Description:Striped Skunks are famous for releasing a foul, strong smelling musk, secreted from the rear end whenever threatened. They are easily to recognize with all black fur that has one white stripe on its nape and a thin one running from forehead to snout. |
