That's a prairie dog for you! These adorable critters have a coat of mixed brown, black, and white fur, and their eyes are sparkling and lively, always on the lookout for fun and games. They have short legs that are perfect for digging and a tail that helps them balance. Their little rounded ears are always perked up, ready to pick up any sounds of danger or fun.  \nNow that we've met our furry friends, let's poke our noses into their homes. Prairie dogs live in burrows in the grasslands of North America, especially in areas known as prairies. These burrows are not just holes in the  \nground, but complex tunnels with multiple rooms for sleeping, storing food, and even playing! Just like we have neighborhoods, prairie dogs live in groups called towns, which can be home to hundreds or even thousands of them.  \nHaving seen where they live, let's see how they spend their days and what they like to munch on. Prairie dogs are herbivores, which means they eat plants. Their favorites are grasses, roots, and seeds. Yummy! They have a busy life cycle, with babies born in the spring and raised by their mothers in the safety of the burrows. In the wild, they can live up to 8 years, spending their time playing, foraging for food and maintaining their burrows.  \nNow, isn't it interesting to know how these little creatures interact with us and other animals? Prairie dogs are very sociable and have a complex system of communication with each other, and believe it or not, they even kiss as a form of greeting! Despite their cuteness, they are considered pests by farmers as they can damage crops, but they're also a key part of the ecosystem, providing food and homes for other animals. Their main defense is their sharp teeth and their ability to quickly escape into their burrows. So, while they may look cute and cuddly, remember, they're still wild animals!  \nSolve each problem.  \nUse the article to answer the question.  \n1) When do prairie dogs have their babies?  \nA.
