You can’t blame the little guy for wanting to head south to warmer weather, especially when it wasn’t his intention to hitch a ride to Toronto in the back of a truck anyway. Problem is no one will take him. If it were any other animal it wouldn’t be an issue, but for this smelly stowaway going back to Cali is not so easy. A one-way ticket could cost as much as US$6,000.

Though he appears friendly, the Toronto Wildlife Centre can’t release the skunk because he could spread disease, but getting him across the border might be a huge problem too. Let’s hope some big-hearted Torontonians come to his rescue. Anyone headed to Lalaland?
