This is pretty sickening when the reason the black-footed ferret is so endangered is because their food source is prairie dogs which are being decimated throughout their range by development and agriculture. All of this time and money spent on cloning the black-footed ferret should be put into habitat restoration. Meanwhile local governments are continuing to sanction the killing of prairie dogs to appease developers and animal ag.
