Figure Legend:
This photograph shows a ground squirrel that died due to a plague infection, Yersinia pestis. Field rodents, such as western ground
squirrels and prairie dogs, may be a threat when their burrows are beside labor camps and residential areas because they and their
fleas are carriers of the plague bacteria. Courtesy of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
