Some of you may remember I live within yards of a 20 acre field packed with blacktail prairie dogs. My town just took ownership of that parcel last week. There are plans of erecting a public works building on the site with ground breaking in December. Today they were erecting a three block long temporary barrier fence along my street. The gal supervisor tells me the dogs are slated for poisoning in the next two weeks. Bummer, I like seeing and hearing those little buggers everyday. The town is still waiting for county health dept. approval, state permits and the like. A private exterminator has been hired to do the job on a per hole cost basis. She gave me the green light to use my airgun on all I wanted. I have mixed emotions on just killing them for sport, but hate the idea of a slow painful death even more.
