Typical life spans for domesticated skunks are considerably longer than for wild skunks, often reaching 10 years, though it is not unusual for a well cared skunk to live well past 20 years - this would lead me to believe that skunks in the wild live for 3-7 years, but that's certainly not their life span potential.
Skunks mate in the early spring and the females are pregnant a little over 2 months. Male skunks do not participate in the rearing of their young. The babies or kits are weaned when they're about 2 months of age, but stay with their mother until they are 6-12 months old. The mother skunk is very protective of her kits, and will spray at any sign of danger to them.
