there is no animal worse that a skunk. i know people will say that lions and bears are much more dangerous, and maybe that is true, but a skunk is the worst of all. i can get away from a bear even if i get close to it, especially if i am in my vehicle or on a bicycle. however if i am anywhere near a skunk and he turns and fires, i am going to smell like the bowels of hell for days if not weeks. they are the most hideous of creatures, and to top it off they also carry diseases like rabies. they are absolutely the worst
