Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Systematic Account of the Prairie-Dogs While at times virtually omnivorous, the prairie-dog finds its principal food in grasses and other green plants. Roots and stems are eaten as well as the tender leaves. In times of scant vegetation, or during a drought, the villages are almost destitute of plant life, so closely is every living bit cropped.
