CLOVIS, N.M. —A New Mexico town is moving hundreds of prairie dogs out of the state.
Members of the Clovis City Commission approved relocating 200-300 prairie dogs to Mitchell County, Texas.
A group called Citizens for Prairie Dogs has until Feb. 1 to complete the task of removing the dogs from area parks.
This past year, the city poisoned hundreds of prairie dogs at a local park at the request of nearby farmers, according to the Albuquerque Journal. Those actions snagged national attention.
