Troopers were called to a skunk, who was spraying everything, running in circles with a cup of yogurt stuck onto its head.

Troopers attempted to contact animal control, who advised they don't handle calls like this, but decided to risk it, anyway.

While one trooper used a wooden pole to guide the skunk in a certain direction and distracting the skunk, a second trooper (and the fastest) ran up and gently grabbed the cup, freeing the skunk.

The skunk took a quick look around, nodded in appreciation and left the area, according to police. Troopers cleared the incident unscathed.
