Black-tailed prairie dog declines in northwestern Mexico: species-habitat relationships in a changing landscape
DownloadFall 2009
One of the three largest systems of black-tailed prairie dog (BTPD) colonies is located in northwestern Chihuahua, Mexico. During the last two decades, the area occupied by these colonies has been highly reduced and fragmented. Previous studies suggested that agriculture, poisoning, cattle...
