Your absolutely correct Westerner, I have never HUNTED Prairie Dogs in Colorado, or anywhere else for that matter. I have, on the other hand, shot more than I care to admit, but for various reasons, have not for a very long time. I have shot(give me time to put on my chest high waders) a Yellow Bellied Marmot, aka, Rock Chuck, at the base of Mt. Shasta, near the town Of Weed, in California, that would dwarf the previous photograph of a deceased Groundog. It weighed, on a certified scale, 16lbs 13oz. And please, no snide remarks, regarding the town I mentioned. Look it up on a map. This again was long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far, away.
