Two species of skunks reside in Nebraska, the eastern striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis) and the eastern spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius), but spotted skunks are protected and rarely seen in Nebraska. Striped skunks are found in agricultural areas, woodlands, and urban areas throughout Nebraska. They prefer to den in sheltered areas under stumps, fallen trees, lumber piles, and porches. It is important to trap, remove and dispose of problem skunks properly.
