The Skunk. Note the white stripe in the fnr can be seen in the dark and is thus 



a "warning color." 



Observations : 



(i). How large is the skunk and what are its colors? 



(2). Describe where the white occurs in the fur of the skunk. 



(3). What is the shape of the head? What is the general shape of the 

 body? Is the fur long or short?
