Tube sock-like skunk covers more ground than deer, impacted by winter weather, study finds.

The research is important because small mammals such as the western spotted skunk face major threats from human-induced land use change.

Marie Tosa , an Oregon State University graduate student, spent 2 years studying the skunks.

Her findings provide data to shape future skunk monitoring efforts and identify threats.

She speculated that the skunks are likely well adapted to fire and is interested in conducting a post-fire study of the skunks. The research findings were recently published in Ecosphere .
