Skunks Stay Safe

1A skunk is small, but it is good at staying safe. Here is why.

2First, a skunk has black and white fur. The colors are easy to see. They tell other animals to stay away.

3Second, a skunk gives a warning. It stamps its feet and lifts its tail.

4Third, a skunk can spray. The spray smells very bad, so most animals run away.
