Giant prairie dog!
Here’s an interesting bit of trivia for you - did you know that the prairie dog is not actually a dog, but an arachnid? That’s right, it has eight legs, four of which it conceals underneath its thick fur. During the winter, when it leaves its burrow for nuts and fruit, it can often be seen walking around on all eights, snapping at fallen acorns.
This is truly a critter whose cuteness belies its ferocity - especially one of this size.
