Skunk Trapped

have a question:
My neighbor had a skunk trapped in her basement window well, it managed to get out but I have very deep basement window wells. How could it escape from there?

Answer:
Skunks can be very inquisitive and often end up in strange places. Don't be overly concerned about being sprayed. Spraying is a last resort for them when they are being threatened.
I usually find a long piece of wood (plank) that I carefully put into the window well and then get out fo the way. The skunk will usually climb up the plank and go home. If it doesn't you will need to call a pest control operator.
Don't leave it there. it will die a horrible death and leave an awful smell.
