How does a skunk produce its odor?

Answer 1

That ghastly spray is the skunk's best defense and, boy, does it work! No creature, human, or beast, can stand being near a skunk with that odor. It comes from a fluid called musk which is produced and stored in a pair of glands under the animal's tail. A skunk can propel the spray about 10 feet!
