No doubt natural selection is at work, but certainly millions of years of skunks, racoons, fox, and other critters attempting to extract and eat them far exceeds the selection from the past 30 years by humans across a fraction of their total range. "Relentlessly" is an exaggeration when you examine the total acreage that they inhabit and it accessibility.
