Classic

Here is Classic, a striped skunk, at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia. I volunteered there for three years before I moved to Arkansas.

Classic and his brother Stomper are two of my favorite animals at the Academy. They're both curious and playful - and into everything! They are descented so they don't smell bad and can't spray. Both have epilepsy and therefore can't be released into the wild. At the Academy they get medicine to prevent seizures.
