A Young Bear Investigates The First Skunk He Has Seemingly Met

Sep 25, 2019 by apost team

A woman came upon a black bear in her backyard one day and decided to film it strolling around and chewing at the wild grass. A few minutes later a new creature arrived on the scene—an adorable but dangerous skunk.

The bear looked young and was curious about the eye-catching black and white creature. He lolloped up to the critter as if to give a friendly hello. By the time he reached his new friend, the skunk was already tensed with fear at the big, burly animal.

The skunk's tail stood at attention like a soldier, and the two wild animals were caught in a face-off. The bear looked around and twitched his ears, but then the skunk decided to take a precautionary charge right at the black bear.

The telling moment of the impending attack was when the skunk started stomping his little feet. The bear took that as a gesture of friendliness and stepped towards the skunk in a regretful decision.

That was the moment when the skunk gave him a few good stinky sprays right in the face and pandemonium broke out. The surprised bear was dazed for a second and then quickly ran away while the skunk was already on his speedy escape in the other direction.

The bear should have hopefully recovered from his encounter soon after the video was taken. Show others this animal encounter and tell us which one you identify with more in the comments below.
