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.
The basics of a skunkâs habitat. Skunks can adapt to just about any environment, but most of them prefer wooded areas. Some species of skunk prefer open or agricultural areas, while others would rather live in rocky areas. Some varieties can even live in dry areas. In general though, skunks build their dens near water in either woods, prairies, or small, rocky caves. Most skunks find a den that was built by another animal and set up shop inside. They also donât mind holing up in abandoned houses, under buildings, or in basements.
