Thunder Bay Baby Skunks Video (HD)

I was driving down some road when I was in Thunder Bay. I noticed these two small skunks walking along the roadside. I took out my camcorder and recorded them. The noise you hear part way though the video is one of the little skunks. I guess it's calling to it's mom... or yelling out in attack mode to me!

I also got some pictures of me picking one of them up. So cute.

You're the first person I know to say that skunks are cute (babies or not) and voluntarily picked one up.

I'm thinking of buying an HD camcorder, any complaints?

I couldn't help but to pick it up. I'll pick up any critter or bug if I can. It was too cute not to grab it. :) One day if I chance upon a rattlesnake, I'll pick that up too!

Seems to be a very good camcorder. It has a 10 megapixel camera built in and the HD aspect of it rocks. Only problem I find is taking it into the clubs. The mic is overzealous with sensitivity and the pressure waves of the bass from the music is havoc on the recording. I did buy a $250 gizmo that will, hopefully, correct this problem in the next Guv event I go to (June 30th). We'll see how it works out. I'm excited for that.

is there any trance or house scene in Thunder Bay.... I am moving there next week just for university...

WOW!!! Sooooo amazing, soooo cute!
Baby skunks are adorable.

I would want to pick it up too

BUT people please be careful with picking up baby wildlife... i dont know a lot about skunks but I know with some animals the moms will disown the babbies if they smell human on them.

Also hoping the mommy didnt get hit by a car

Good fucking luck! Now the ppl I spoke with were older trades dudes like electricians, mechanical, etc... and had no idea about house music. As for the younger crowd... it's possible. All the radio stations were ROCK and I found nothing that was at least top 40. Sucker !!!! LOL!

Like I said, good luck and hopefully there's something there for you.

I was joking with my co-worker that we'll probably see the babies stuck to some rednecks pickup wheels. That would be sad. :(
There's plenty of rednecks out there that wouldn't hesitate to squish them. I'm thinking that mom was dead 'cause I doubt she would have left the babies alone like that. Also there was no use bringing them in somewhere as I'm sure the locals would have killed them instead of taking care of them. They have a better chance of life fending for themselves.

two things:

those baby skunks are adorable, look at their tiny little paws! and the macro on your camera is amazing
