I caught a small skunk in a duffers trap today but didn't take the camera. But i wanted to show everyone the skunks glands. And how i remove them. The picture above shows where the glands lay along side of the anus. Just at the base of the tail. I will split down both legs to the base of the tail. Then when you separate the skin from the carcase along these cuts. Being gentle when close to the tail. You will see the glands attached to the anus. Now if you take and gently pull the glands up and slice the membrane holding them to the body they will start to pull straight up then when you come to the anus cut thru it. Then as your pulling up on the glands and your thru the anus they will skin right off. Then you can put them to the side and skin as you would any other animal. After wards you can take and use a syringe and empty them of there essence. I hope this helps!

Draw out the essence and put it in a glass jar with a secure lid. After you are done drawing the essence you can take the pods and put them in a glass jar and allow them to rot down for a long while and you can use whats left in homemade lures.
