Good that you explained where the name came from for that box.. It sounded kinda cruel. But even for the family name, there must have been someone at somepoint who was a skinner tho.. 
Interesting study you had, about behaviour.
Like Squeak, my dog also learned, unfortunately, to beg by pressing her muzzle on my leg.. She started doing that herself but she just looked too cute not to give her something as a reward for it. She might have trained me instead..
My stories includes mice as usual
When I got my driving licence, I used to drive my dad's Nissan Sunny. Once I backed it out of the carage and then saw something on the rearview mirror. There was mouse jumping on the hat rack (?? We call it hat rack.. what an earth do you call the ledge under the back window? At front there is dashboard, but what it is on the back of a sedan?), and then it came to the front and went under the dashboard and I thought it might come under the pedals. I was scared I would crush it by hitting the break pedal (what a silly thought I had). I left the car real quick, and of course, the princess I was, yelled my dad to come and get rid of that mouse which propably already had left the car.
After that, I was highly suspicious if the mouse would come back and was carefully checking the mirror and all the interior eachtime I went to that car. My friend also crocheted a mouse for me to put in that car. I even used it in my current car. My friends' kids used to love it when they were babies, maybe that is why it lost an ear at somepoint and its nose got quite crooked and chewed up.. 🐭
Mice have also done a many food stashes and nests in cars. My C5 had some chewed up wires along the way.. Maybe that was a reason why it burned down one night after my brother almost "sold" it to his friend. But also, it was a Citroen, electric problems were not new to me, so I don't know if I can blame the mice
My current car has not been free of mice either, they made a nest in the bonnet soundproofing mat, that I still haven't gotten a replacement for.
