Why does a skunk smell so bad, and why is the smell so pungent?

A rabbit just hopped by my house, and he obviously has been sprayed by a skunk recently. I wonder how long this poor rabbit has to endure this. Will it go away with time?Why does a skunk smell so bad, and why is the smell so pungent?
The smell is so bad because it is the skunks defense mechanism. Not only does it smell bad, it has irritants in it that would burn your skin and eyes.


If you were to get sprayed, you would want to pick up one of the home remedy's for spray removal off the Internet, but as for the bunny....the smell will fade, it's just gonna take awhile....





Hope this helps!!!
