Praire Dog Expo at Denver Zoo Feb. 1st, thinking of having some fun...........
Since my Dad is an exterminator who kills Praire Dogs, we were thinking of showing up in his truck and setting up a display inside the zoo on how to eradicate them. .22, .308, poison, etc., I think it's a good idea.

Trollific...but the solution is to reintroduce the Black Footed Ferret

And continue to hope the Birds of Prey continue to flourish on the front range
Ecology and behavior
They are nocturnal hunters that require a plentiful supply of prairie dogs for prey. Though they will also eat other small mammals, birds, and insects, a single Black-footed ferret eats about 100 prarie dogs a year and cannot survive without access to large colonies of them. Typically a prairie dog colony 125 acres (50 ha) in size will provide a sufficiently stable prey population for one adult ferret. The ferrets are mainly dependent on the prairie dogs for their survival, and even shelter in prairie dog burrows during the day.Sometimes ferrets eat small animals like mice. Ferret mating seasons last from March-April. Gestation of the kits commonly lasts 41-43 days. The number of kits born ranges from 1 to 7, but most commonly only 3-4 are born.
