Wildlife as Canon sees it
Raising awareness of endangered species is just one of the ways Canon is taking action—for the good of the planet we call home.
Utah Prairie Dog
— Cynomys parviden
mammal
Family friendly. The Utah prairie dog lives, socializes and cooperates with its extended family in an elaborate network of tunnels and chambers, called a "town," excavated over generations. Each winter, family members cozy up together for long periods to hibernate. When out foraging for choice grasses, they take turns looking out for danger. But while families can often escape predators this way, they have no defense against habitat loss, plague, and poisoning. The future has turned decidedly unfriendly.
Spread the word and help raise awareness!
