Great Horned Owls are the only predators of Skunks, the Great Horned Owl is not deterred by the strong scent of its spray. Some Great Horned Owl pairs bring so many skunks to their young that their nest can be located by the odor alone. The smell of the Skunk may linger for years.

Glaucidium brasilianum in Parque del Este, Caracas, Venezuela. It is a very small owl that measures 16 centimeters long, it eats birds as big as it, the easiest way to find it is using playback because it always responds to it and big numbers of little birds that are part of their diet start to fly around ready to attack and to stay away from it.
