The document discusses a study of prairie dogs at a zoo in St. Louis. The scientists found that the prairie dogs became more affectionate and kissed and cuddled more when more people were watching them, similar to how humans may act when being observed. Young prairie dogs seemed to become more tense with larger audiences.
