Clean and wash the skunks, making sure that the scent glands are removed.

Lower the heat and boil until the meat is tender, about 40 minutes.
Remove all the scum that rises to the surface.
Make a batter by mixing together the egg yolks, milk, flour, salt and baking powder. Mix well until the batter is the consistency cake batter. Heat the bear fat or lard in a deep fryer to about 360 degrees.
Dip skunk pieces in batter then fry until golden brown.
