A novel interaction between a long‐tailed weasel ( Mustela frenata ) and a plains spotted skunk ( Spilogale interrupta ) carcass is detailed. In November 2020, a farmer in Edmunds County in north‐central South Dakota sent in a video recording of a long‐tailed weasel with a spotted skunk carcass. Location of the event, carcass condition, and recorded behavior of the long‐tailed weasel offer probable, but unconfirmed, evidence that the spotted skunk was killed by the long‐tailed weasel.
