What We Do:
Prairie Dog Pals is a 501(c)3, nonprofit charity whose mission is to preserve prairie dogs and their environment, as well as to provide information and education about the species to the public.
Prairie Dog Pals has been helping to care for prairie dogs in the city since the late 1980s. To ensure their survival, we provide food and water in barren areas where the prairie dogs don’t have access to natural sources. We also capture and relocate the prairie dogs where loss of habitat or human conflict threatens their existence.
Our goals are:
- To preserve appropriate areas of land for naturally existing prairie dogs in the greater Albuquerque area.
- For all counties to have preserved areas of land for prairie dogs where they naturally exist.
- For leased public lands to allow prairie dogs and other native wildlife to coexist with humans and domestic animals.
Prairie Dog Pals offers a variety of documents that our volunteers and others who want to help prairie dogs can use.
Our basic meetup tampa contains information about the organization and prairie dogs and comes with a donation who to flirt. You also can download general information about Prairie Dog Pals and our prairie dog Talking Points.
