[National Geographic Wallpaper] Black-tailed Prairie Dog (검은꼬리개쥐)


Denver, Colorado
1997
Raymond Gehman

“Burgeoning Denver suburbs loom behind a black-tailed prairie dog. The long persecuted species may be at a crossroads. [In March 1999] the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service began a nine-month review to decide if blacktails are an endangered species. ... Though they may number 12 million, blacktails have been eliminated from 98 percent of their range by habitat loss and poisoning. [In May 1999] the U.S. Forest Service stopped poisoning prairie dogs, but another major danger, plague, is killing the animals.”

???From Earth Almanac, October 1999, National Geographic magazine
