When the predator comes too close, the skunk sprays a foul smelling gas (which is really stored up urine) at them so they can't stand the smell and run away. So really, they spray to protect themselves. They can spray about 16 feet away. SKUNKS ARE NOT CUDDLY TOYS!!! THEY ARE EXTREMELY CUTE, BUT STAY AWAY!!!!!
