Great Horned Owls

The Great Horned Owls are one of the genuine predators of skunks that eat skunks. These nocturnal, solitary birds, often known as Tiger owls, are members of the Strigiformes order. They are mostly carnivorous and eat small animals and insects, including skunks.

Like all other owls, the Great Horned Owls are accomplished hunters no matter what habitat they are in. These birds are skilled in stealthy hunting techniques because of their natural coloring, which works well as a natural camouflage. They usually hunt at night, taking advantage of the darkness. These owls have exceptional eyesight and may spot unwary prey on the ground. They swoop down with perfect flight patterns after they have decided on their meal, thanks to their large wings. These owls smash their prey's bodies with their powerful talons when they grab them. After killing their victim, they proceed to dismember it before transporting the pieces to their nests.

Since they cannot see great-horned owls coming, skunks frequently have little protection against them. Skunks can only use their sprays to defend themselves if they can see the predators coming. The skunks are at the owl's mercy now that they no longer have the benefit of high ground.
