A friend of ours had a family of skunks make their home in the return air
ductwork of their Mariposa house. They burrowed through a poorly sealed
seam. Ugh, and throughout the house no less.
Made me feel pretty lucky that my only close encounter was a sprayed car
while visiting an aunt in the Hollywood Hills, where I'd expect more
weasels, snakes, sharks, and rats :).
