Potential merge
[edit]This article is very short and contains a lot of dubiously sourced/unsourced material, and although I searched google to attempt to find better sources, I could find none. What's more, it's not sufficiently clear whether this article is about skunk SPRAY (the stinky defensive secretion) or rendered skunk FAT used in Native American cooking and home remedies—nor is it clear whether those things are even separate entities. Based on the available sources it seems like the article is supposed to be about rendered skunk fat, and if that's the case I'm not sure if it's a notable enough topic to warrant its own article. I personally think the best course of action would be to merge this article with the main Skunk article. Let me know if anyone has thoughts or objections. ZiggyRat (talk) 02:42, 14 July 2026 (UTC)
