Observation Date / Time

Weather: 48 degrees and foggy. I'd gotten out to record raccoon on road nearby and found this striped skunk in brush on side of road. At first appeared to be sleeping, but was dead. Must have died from internal bleeding as no blood present. Body was on West side or road where there is a tall metal wire fence with thick scrubs. Vineyards with no fence on East side of road.
