The Western spotted skunk is native to Western United States, Northern Mexico, and Southwestern British Columbia. They inhabit brushy fields, rocky canyons, and wooded areas.

These nocturnal omnivores feed on insects, berries, and small vertebrates such as mice and lizards. They use their strong front claws to dig up common insects like beetles and caterpillars. They also eat scorpions in the southwest.

Their thick fur features boldly striped black and creamy white, with three stripes on each side of the front part of the body, and three stripes on the hind-parts.

They have short, round ears, a short muzzle, a white spot between the eyes, and a white patch below ears. These solitary animals have a large, long haired tail measuring about 6 inches.

Females give birth to a litter of two to six young. They are born blind and helpless but grow very quickly.
