I don't know...

...I heard once that if one grabbed a skunk by the tail and lifted them off the ground that they couldn't spray because they need their feet on the ground to do so.

That said, I'm not inclined to even THINK about testing that theory.
My dad said someone told him that if you quickly dumped a five gallon bucket of water on them, they could not spray.

He did test the theory.

It is not true.

Any scientific hypothesis is based on more than one experiment. I don’t believe that he conducted enough tests.

Only woodchucks I’ve ever seen in Oklahoma have been in the eastern part of the state, and they were few and far between over there.
We had a woodchuck walk up our driveway several years ago and climb a tree. I took a pic and sent it to the ODW. They confirmed it was exactly that.
They said it's really rare to see one in our location, but not unheard of.
