I had mixed reactions to this.

C'mon - it's a fucking skunk with it's head stuck in a yogurt cup.

oplait has its trademark yogurt cup with its tapered shape and foil lid. Animal advocates want you to know that that same cup has been killing small animals for years — and General Mills refuses to act upon it.

Skunks and squirrels get drawn to the yogurt’s sweet smell (http://gawker.com/cop-and-baby-skunk-with-yogurt-cup-on-head-for-presiden-1721925113), only for their heads to get stuck on the inside rim of Yoplait cups. A skunk specialist with the Humane Society tells The Huffington Post (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/yoplait-yogurt-wildlife-danger-skunk-cups_5602dde9e4b0fde8b0d0d5cf?ncid=tweetlnkushpmg0 0000067) that she gets up to a dozen calls per month about such incidents during the spring and summer. These animals can die from either suffocation or dehydration.
