While blood trailing a downed buck, my (then) 14 yr-old daughter and I came across this odd skunk.

Don't have pics, but I have also seen:
-3 solid black coyotes (shot one with a bow)
-1 solid black red fox
-many solid black fox squirrels
-one pie-bald deer
-a rat snake that was grey-yellow 'digital' in the front, solid black in the back (about 6 feet long)

Pretty cool . Did you skin stinker out for a pelt ? I sure would , skunks bring fair money .

WE didn't skin ol' Pepe Le'Pew. The girl had just shot her best buck to date and we were otherwise occupied. I did skin a mink once and swore to never make that stinky mistake again.

Almost forgot... Saw a solid white gobbler with a black beard. Saw him 3 or 4 times in the same area running with about 8 or 10 other gobblers. He was the biggest and the others where always surrounding him like he was the president and they the secret service. Found it hard to believe some ******* hadn't poached him since he was within sight of the road every time.

That ratsnake might have been worth quite a few bucks. "Designer" snakes in different color phases bring big money sometimes.
The skunk is a wild looking one isn't it. Don't blame yall a bit for not messing with it. It would be pretty rough to dress and drag a deer while stinking!
