Here are three easy ways to say the same idea:
- The skunk sprays a stinky smell at the thing that tried to hurt it.
- The skunk shoots its smelly spray to scare off whoever bothered it.
- When something comes too close, the skunk sprays a strong, bad smell to make it go away.
Step-by-step, simple explanation:
- The skunk feels scared or bothered.
- It lifts its tail and gets ready.
- It sprays a very stinky smell from its tail.
- The stinky smell makes the other animal or person leave.
Safety note: Never try to touch or bother wild animals. Give them space so they don’t get scared.
