Can a relocated skunk find its way back?

Yes, relocated skunks can find their way back to their original location. Skunks are territorial, and their strong homing instinct aids them in finding their way back to their familiar territory. They rely on scent-marking and spatial memory, along with their keen sense of smell, to navigate and locate their home range. Unless they are relocated over a substantial distance, skunks may persist their attempt to return to their familiar territory. Skunks are also resourceful in exploring and re-exploring their surroundings, enabling them to find their way back using multiple cues.
