The western hog-nosed skunk (Conepatus leuconotus) is North America's largest skunk, characterized by a single, broad white stripe extending from its head to its entirely white tail. It features a long, naked, pig-like snout and long front claws designed for rooting in the ground for insects, making it a specialized digger, often called a "badger skunk". |
