The other day we talked a lot about dinosaurs. My boys asked lots of questions, most of which I did not know the answers to. “How did they become extinct?” “How big is a T-Rex” Etc.
Well, yesterday’s topic was skunks. Kaiden asked lots of great questions about skunks, most of which I did not know the answers to. So we got on line. He wanted to know “how far can skunks spray?” and “Can skunks spray any time they want to or do they have to be startled to spray?”.
Thanks to Google the answers are “too far” (actually the answer is 10 – 15 feet) and the for the most part, skunks have to be startled or scared before they spray. We also found out that they eat stink bugs. Kaiden thought this was very funny. Great info about skunks in the nature video by PBS titled “Is That Skunk?”
So the whole time Kaiden and I were exploring skunks on the web, Kael was playing near by and he came over to us, looking confused, he asked…
“Mumma, how did the skunks make the dinosaurs stinked?”
