This Skunk Weathervane was created all in copper, with distinct tooling to mimic its fur and bushy tail. A glass eye gives it a realistic look, particularly when the sun glints through it. As with all our weathervanes, this Skunk weather vane can be personalized by optional gold leafing, shown above to accentuate its stripe.

Skunks (sometimes referred to as polecats) are mammals best known for their ability to excrete a strong, foul-smelling odor. General appearance ranges from species to species from black and white to brown or cream colored. They belong to the family Mephitidae and to the order Carnivora. There are 11 species of skunks, which are divided into four genera: Mephitis (hooded and striped skunks, two species), Spilogale (spotted skunks, two species), Mydaus (stink badgers, two species), and Conepatus (hog-nosed skunks, five species). The two skunk species in the Mydaus genus inhabit Indonesia and the Philippines; all other skunks inhabit the Americas from Canada to central South America.
