1 Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease that causes demyelination (disruption of the myelin that insulates and protects nerve cells) of spinal nerve and brain cells.  Although the exact case is unknown, multiple sclerosis is considered to be an autoimmune disease.
The skunk is not a rodent. They belong to the family Mephitidae and the order Carnivora which does not include rodentia. They are sometimes placed in the family Mustelidae (weasels) but have been discovered to be less related than was thought.
Skunks are themselves predators, although they do consume some plants. Their most common animal prey includes insects, worms, rodents, lizards, snakes, birds and eggs. Skunks are most active at night. They are natural burrowers and dig for prey and also create burrows for themselves.
