A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Cynomys ludovicianus
These prairie dogs appear to be gray/tan in color with a black tipped tail.
I saw these in Omaha's Henry Doorly zoo. They were not intentionally on exhibit as they are wild dogs.
They are not confined and seem to have made themselves quite at home. They put on their "sound show" the closer I got, but I never approached close enough to make them disappear, just enough to make them nervous. I got a good recording of their warning barks.
