Skunk

Skunks are mammals world-renowned for their anal scent glands, which have the unique ability to produce a powerful malodorous liquid. They also make occasional guest appearances in the Crash series, as generic enemies.

Crash Bandicoot
Skunks appear in the levels Jungle Rollers and Rolling Stones, attacking Crash by marching at him in a straight line. They fall easy to jump or spin attacks, and given their propensity for marching in lines of up to four skunks long, killing them in rapid succession is an easy way to earn free Wumpa Fruit. They never attack Crash with their notoriously malodorous excretions.

Skunks reappear as enemies in Jungle Bungle. They attack by walking back and forth, but a single one attempts to bite you. One, voiced by Jim Cummings, laments his fate of having been stuck marching back and forth for "ten stinkin' years"; a reference to his role as a generic enemy in Crash Bandicoot 1.

Trivia

 * In Crash Bandicoot, the skunk originally had an attack of it spraying green fumes, something that can only be seen in the prototype version of the game.
 * In Crash Twinsanity, a skunk is used as an example for a tutorial on how to spin enemies.
