IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU LOVE PRAIRIE DOGS.





This is a black footed ferret. It can eat up to 100 prairie dogs a year, and cannot survive without a large supply nearby. Conservation teams hold 50 in captivity. They are endangered because of plague, and the decline in prairie dog population (through habitat loss and poisoning).
