Never seen one like that myself. Good Work.
I hunt for peace of mind.

Those are very cool looking.  We are supposed to have those here but I have never seen one dead or alive.

I didn't know they were in Washington!  Is it an off color or a different kind of skunk?  Where was it killed?  Pretty cool!

Is that a subspecies of a regular skunk? That is very cool looking.
I have skinned few skunks. Never my favorite thing to do. I might pass on the normal ones, but this one I would hold my breath real good and dig in.
Whats the skunk market these days?

This is the first one I have trapped since I was 7 years old and in colo. Have not seen one since. Was kinda shocked.

I've never seen one before, thanks for sharing! The one mounted on the boot would be great fun left by the front door when guests are over!
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.
