I drew a skunk and a chipmunk for day 16 and 17. Growing up in Vancouver, B.C., I’ve seen and fed plenty of chipmunks but I have never encountered a skunk. The closest I’ve been to smelling a skunk is smelling Skunk Cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus). There used to be some swampy areas with skunk cabbages around our neighbourhood that we would quite often use as a short cut to school. We would plug our noses as we walked through. They were stinky! Sadly, the wetlands have disappeared and now houses stand where they used to be.


Thanks for visiting.
