It has fleecy, straggly, woolly [fur]: black, dark; arched tail; a rather squat build; pointed ears; slender muzzle. It bears its young, it dwells underground, in burrows, in openings in the wall, in openings in the rocks. Its food is black beetles, maguey worms, nextecuillin worms, small cockroaches. And it preys especially on turkeys, on bird eggs; like the weasel, it also sucks the turkeys from below. And when it is full, it bites their heads off; it eats only their heads. And when it is really full, furthermore, [it continues to strangle them];1 it throws them away. Frightful is its spray, truly stinking, a deathly stench, a bad stench. When it sprays, [the stench] is spread all over the land; it pervades the whole countryside. And if anyone tries to catch it, it no more than sees him than it quickly raises its tail so that it spreads its spray over him. If perhaps it sprays one, it yellows his cape; it completely takes everything over; such is its stench. Its spray consists of small globules which are within it. If it falls, flies in one’s face, it blinds one, it damages his eyes. Those who have pustules merely swallow skunk spray; it is said that with it the pustules heal.
