The city of Chicago is known for many things. It is known as The Windy City more for its politics than for its weather. It is well known as the home for many of the works of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It is the home of the Merchandise Mart which is the only building in Chicago (and maybe the country) that has its own zip code (60654).
Skunks usually nest in burrows constructed by other animals, but they also live in hollow logs or even abandoned buildings. In colder climates, some skunks may sleep in these nests for several weeks of the chilliest season.
Skunks are one of the primary predators of the honeybee, relying on their thick fur to protect them from stings. The skunk scratches at the front of the beehive and eats the guard bees that come out to investigate. Mother skunks are known to teach this behavior to their young.
