The Gunnison's Prairie Dog (Cynomys gunnisoni) is a rodent and member of the squirrel family.  They are primarily distributed in the Four Corners region of Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona.  Their coats are light brown mixed with black-colored hairs. The top of the head, cheeks, and eyebrows are darker than the rest of the body. The tail is mostly white.  The prairie dog’s eyes are on the sides of the head to give them wide peripheral vision to more easily spot predators.  The Gunnison's prairie dog typically feeds during the day on grasses, herbs, and leaves.  In the spring, they feed on newly grown shrubs.  In the summer they mainly consume seeds.  Prairie dog habitat includes meadows, grasslands, high desert and floodplains. They are often found in areas of rabbitbrush, sagebrush, and saltbrush.  Gunnison's prairie dogs live in large colonies of up to several hundred.  They are more active in the early morning and late afternoon especially during hot weather.  When the temperatures are cooler, they become more active throughout the day. When it rains or snows, the prairie dog will spend its time underground.  When they are above ground, they feed, make social contact, look out for predators, groom and dig their burrows.  During the winter, the Gunnison's prairie dog hibernates for long periods of time without food or water, instead relying on stored fat and physiological adaptations to slow their metabolism.  After hibernation, they become active from April through October.  The Gunnison's prairie dog has a complex system of vocal communication.  Their bark is a combination of high-pitched syllables to identify various predators.  They also have different sounds for an \
