As a keystone species, prairie dogs are important for many ecosystems. Their homes are repurposed by burrowing owls and other wildlife. They also improve soil quality because they mix topsoil and subsoil bringing beneficial nutrients to the surface. Prairie dogs should be revered and not treated as target practice. Their animal medicine teaches us how to treat others well. In nature, they identify each other with a kiss. They share resources, helping neighbors and other families to build burrows. They also warn each other of danger. Carved from picture jasper, Alex Tsethlikai's adorable turquoise-eyed prairie dog is upright at about 2 1/4" tall, 5/8" wide and 1" deep. An elegant offering bundle has a turquoise point with coral and turquoise beads.
