from
Wikipedia
There may also be subgroups within a town, called " wards ", which are separated by a physical barrier.
Most prairie dog family groups are made up of one adult breeding male, two to three adult females and one to two male offspring and one to two female offspring.
Males leave their natal groups when they mature to find another family group to defend and breed in.
Some family groups contain more breeding females than one male can control, so have more than one breeding adult male in them.
Among these multiple-male groups, some may contain males that have friendly relationships, but the majority contain males that have largely antagonistic relationships.
