Meet the Skunks Experience in Cheshire

Animal Experience Days: Have you ever wanted to befriend a skunk? No? Well, we can hardly blame you. If ever there was an animal with an image-problem, it’s the skunk. However—as you’ll discover during this unique wildlife encounter in Cheshire—there’s more to these fascinating creatures than meets the nose!

Okay, we know what you’re thinking—skunks smell, don’t they? Well, yes and no. Granted, a threatened skunk can spray a scent that’d make your toes curl, but they’re not smelly in general. Every animal’s entitled to defend itself—it’s a jungle out there, after all—and for the most part, skunks are gentle, peace-loving creatures. They’ve certainly more to offer than their pungent reputation suggests. Did you know, for example, that skunks can perform hand stands? Or that they’re highly intelligent and responsive to training? Have you seen how darn cute they are too!? Discover all this and more during a half-hour session at the region’s top exotic animal centre, in Alsager—and prepare to leave your prejudices (and clothes pegs) at the door!

The Meet the Skunks experience in Cheshire would make a unique experience gift for animal lovers, young and old. Surprise someone with an Experience Days voucher today—and let’s show the much-maligned skunk the love it truly deserves!
