prairie dog in the wild
one of thousands in a prairie dog town in the wild....in South Dakota
They sit by their holes in the sun....if they are intimidated, they will turn tail and head down into their hole (usually after they beat their tails against the ground to warn the others of impending danger) If you walk too closely to them, they make a sort of muffled squeaking noise before they turn around and scurry down their hole in the ground.
