Explosive devices can be used to kill prairie dogs, the Colorado Wildlife Commission decided Thursday - giving farmers one more tool to get rid of the burrowing animals.

"I'm tickled pink," said Matt Fickes, a Sterling farmer who has sought to use the devices. "I've got prairie dogs so thick I can't see straight.

Ah, the joy of explosives.

I get the image of some farmers hunting after prairie dogs using huge artillery pieces or bazookas. Or maybe a railgun.

I thought the issue with priarie dogs was the hole they left in the ground...

No, they are one of the elil.

Okay, maybe not, but they're still annoying. Me and my brethren support the human war on those swarthy creatures!
