Prairie dogs.

Black footed ferrets were considered extinct for many years during my
lifetime. Obviously, they weren't. There ain't a hell of a lot of them.
They're the mammal equivalent of the whooping crane in America.

This website is full of s**t. They don't even know the difference
between a groundhog and a prairie dog.

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-footed_ferret> should get you
started and plenty more to go to. There are about a hundred posts that
I haven't read in this thread so far. Maybe someone else downthread has
covered this.
