Odorous animal (5)

I believe the answer is:

skunk

(Other definitions for skunk that I've seen before include "rat" , "Animal that can eject a foul-smelling fluid" , "Vile-smelling animal" , "Marijuana - scumbag" , "American animal notorious for its bad smell" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
