How long will a skunk carcus smell?

A skunk carcass can produce a strong odor that may last for several days to weeks, depending on environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. The smell comes from the skunk's potent spray, which contains sulfur compounds that can linger. As the carcass decomposes, the odor may change, but it can still be noticeable for some time. Proper disposal of the carcass can help mitigate the lingering smell.
