I just had to call the animal cops on a skunk that is walking repeatedly in a circle in the middle of the street. They said it's probably rabid and not to approach, which... wild animal, so… but then there are a lot of not so bright people in the world whose curiosity/empathy might get them into skunk trouble, so probably a warning was in order.
Anyway, they are sending someone. Poor skunk. Crappy way to go out, but likely more humane than getting hit by a car. So far everyone has been drivng around it gingerly. There is one owner whose little dog gets out often, so I hope that doesn't happen this morning.
