Western spotted skunk

Spilogale gracilis

Description:

Black and white mammal. Saw this youngster around 11am. Seems to be newly weaned or orphaned.

Notes:

I had to find the nearest place I could park and walk back to within a decent distance for the photograph. Appeared to be searching the street for something: perhaps insect larva that had fallen. Then he suddenly hurried away
