Lubbock Needs a Prairie Dog Answer to Groundhog Day
You see them everywhere in Lubbock. In vacant lots, undeveloped farm land, and The Buddy Holly Recreation Area. They are the unofficial/official rodent of the South Plains.
The Prairie Dog. Our underground neighbors add a level of playfulness and a sense of nature to our urban areas. Yep, four pounds of West Texas cuteness.

I personally have, on more than one occasion, just parked the car at Llano Estacado Lake and watched these little scamps go about their busy day of foraging and watching protectively over their burrows. Even though you and I know that they have nothing to fear from man, our local prairie pups are always a little skittish whenever people get too close. Although with the sheer population of prairie dogs at the park, they tend at times to simply go about their business, even in the presence of picnickers and sightseers. I d imagine that they know they have us outnumbered.
