Major problem! In South Dakota, there are these prarrie dogs. They eat all the grass meant for these cows farmers are raising. (I may point out that they are only going to be killed so as to be made into Big Macs for the center of all evil that many Americans worship, McDonalds.)So, this organization(which I think is the US Departmen of Agriculture, but I'm not 100% sure) might let the farmers kill all the prarie dogs. These prarrie dogs are the main source of food for the Black- Footed Ferret. Those living in that specific area of SD almost completely died off 25 yrs. ago, and have slowly made a come back. If the USDA or whatever lets the farmers do this horrible thing, all those ferrets will die of starvation. This is a HUGE problem.
