You just missed the lantern flies.

Aside from skunks there is the occasional possum which seemingly has no fear and will walk close to you.

Possums are harmless, resistant to rabies, and eat ticks and other pests. Ticks though, watch out for those. If you go running in heavy brush or forest check yourself all over and check your pets regularly.
