This offbeat film narrated by Rob Brydon takes us to the Wild West where prairie dogs live in huge colonies known as towns . Like meerkats, they are comical to watch, but there is a whole lot more to prairie dogs than just being cute - they can talk. 　　For 30 years Professor Con Slobodchikoff has been recording their calls in response to predators like coyotes, hawks and badgers. He believes he has discovered a language second only to humans in its complexity. It s a bold claim but is he right? Con has devised a series of cunning field experiments to help prove his point.
