Personally, I think this was a major mistake. Sure, their feces is great for the grass, but how good is that if the cows and horses break their legs in the burrows and die?
An excellent example is Colorado. These are rodents and all carry fleas, which can carry Bubonic Plague. Other species that come with the prairie dogs, microbial's, and parasites.
Arizona farmers and ranchers worked hard for decades to eliminate these extremely destructive rodents from the state.
We respect the Eco Movement, as long as they can keep these rodents in specific areas, however, during a drive to Utah from Arizona, an extremely large prairie dog was spotted on the side of Interstate 40! These rodents are going to spread like a prairie fire, and residents will eventually be forced to take care of these fast breeding rodents again I'm afraid.
These are burrowing rodents and there will always be someone that will pick them up and transport them into other areas, which can cause an ecological disaster.
We hope that the Arizona Game and Fish, and those other agencies, closely monitor this project.
