90% of a relationship is deciding where to eat… “I picked the wheatgrass yesterday. It’s your pick.” What’s for dinner? Prairie dogs feed primarily on plants, selecting forbs (flowering, broad-leaved plants) and grasses high in moisture content and nutritive value to supply their needs for water and energy. As winter comes around, they will transition to seeds and insects that are sources of high fiber. Most prairie dog species don’t hibernate through the winter, but they do put on weight (umm, it’s called layering) in preparation for the colder months, and they can go into periods of deeper sleep during particularly lean and cold periods of time.
