4Heavy stuff, but interesting
By M. Broderick
This is a book by a scientist, and he was writing for other scientists–But it may be read by any individual with an interest. The author watched a prairie dog town for assorted months a year for over a decade, marking each of the animals so he could track individuals. He describes details of how he made his observations, but most of the book describes the habits and social conduct of prairie dogs, just as the title says. The book has a LOT of detail, but is readable and interesting. Some is rather surprising, such as prairie dog mothers who try to murder their nieces and nephews, but who, if they don’t succeed, will nurse these same infants a few weeks later.
Recommended, if you want to “know it all” with regards to prairie dogs! For less intense studies and gorgeous photography, look for “Prairie Dogs, Sentinels of the Plains.”

5Just when it comes to everything you wanted to know…
By Prairie Freethinker
For those mesmerized in learning IN DEPTH in regards to prairie dogs in general–and the black-tailed in particular–this is the book to have. There are probably better books that talk about PDs at a more introductory level. But if you want to get severe then you need to go to the experts, and Dr. Hoogland is “it” when it comes to this arousing and attention holding and indispensable Plains animal. The writing is not light, but is surely readable and understandable for a non-academic reader. The author’s passion for his subject is evident throughout, and the lengths he and his team went to to finish their exploration is arousing and attention holding as well.
