Prairie dog control plan cited in Jeff Davis County
In Jeff Davis County a work project seeks to destroy between 30 000 and 300 000 prairie dogs to relieve pasture loss. Sixteen relief clients would spread 20 000 pounds of poison grain over three months. A hillside landslide near Henderson Ranch between Fort Davis and Alpine is noted as perhaps the first in the area since Neolithic times, as a mud slide three feet deep spanned a hundred yards and sent debris downslope.
