EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the Prairie Air! These adorable Black-tailed Prairie Dog pups are melting hearts with their sweet smooches. It seems like they're giving their parent a big kiss, but don't be fooled - it's actually a gesture of recognition and identification within their social group. Talk about family love! Captured at Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma, USA, this heartwarming moment showcases the affectionate nature of these gregarious mammals. The little ones are clearly showing off their cute and cuddly side as they interact with their parent. These young rodents, part of the sciuridae family, know how to make everyone go 'aww' with their charming behavior. Their vertical pose adds an extra touch of cuteness to this already precious scene. Photographer Marie Read has truly captured the essence of prairie dog families and reminds us that even in the animal kingdom, gestures of love and greeting exist. So next time you see someone kissing hello or goodbye, remember these furry creatures spreading joy through kisses on the prairies!
