(Other sources, maybe less credible, say that they not only eat scorpions, but they are immune to snake venom).
It's funny, a skunk is a super common animal but I never think about their diet. Another websource says that "skunks enjoy [eating] bees and wasps; [they] also eat scorpions and venomous spiders"' another source says that the majority of a skunk's diet is insects that are harmful to people.
Dunno if scorpions count as insects that are harmful to people.
Fun fact! This is now the longest April Fool's fic I've ever published, and it's still not done!
¡Riding bareback! ¡This story certainly is mature!
"Some scorpions for the road?"
"Ponies don't like the taste."
"Oh, right. More for me!"
