They're legal in a few states as long as their scent glands have been removed. Apparently, they're pretty good pets, of course it helps if you get them when they're young and raise them. Apparently they're not too bad with children, either, but the evil part of me hopes that some stupid kid will see someone's pet skunk and then go out and think "I wanna go pet this skunk!" and then get sprayed when they try to pet a wild one. :lol: Of course that's too evil and I wouldn't really wish that upon anyone...
Only certain devil children and their parents. And grumpy old people.
