Yup. I've heard nothign about this supposed "possible endangered listing" for the prairie dogs.
This has got to be a fabrication?

All this from people that say, "Gee, aren't they cute." And drive home, never having to deal with them on a regular basis.

Like someone else said, "Call them prairie rats and noboby would care what you did to them."

Here in southern utah we have a prairie dog breed that is already protected. It is the most ridiculous thing you have ever seen. the golf course looks like a spong, with hundred of these rats running all over the place. people cant build on their own land without waiting years on a list to have them safely removed. they can only relocate so many a year. it is unbelievable!!!!!
