    The black-footed ferret is North America's only native ferret species and is endangered. It lives exclusively in prairie dog burrows across the American Midwest and Northern Plains. Prairie dogs make up the majority of the ferret's diet, and their populations determine the ferret's habitat requirements. The ferret was driven to near extinction due to prairie dog control programs and the introduction of plague, which decimated prairie dog populations and destroyed the ferret's habitat and food source.
