That area is between Fulton and Florence Streets.  The Forest City Intelligence Agency is using heavy duty construction equipment digging through the area trying to find the <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/stapleton-family-has-successful-thanksgiving-morning-prairie-dog-hunt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">vaunted prairie dog<\/a> leader.\n\u201cAt this point, we have a lot of confidence that we have trapped him in that area, and we will find him,\u201d said agency spokesperson Mitchell Cuthbert.  \u201cThis has been a ten year search that essentially began when Forest City started developing Stapleton, and we have been absolutely dedicated to finding the leader of the <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/they%E2%80%99re-baaaaack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">prairie dogs<\/a> that have terrorized the Stapleton land for so many years.\u201d  Forest City did not give specifics on how they received the intelligence, but mentioned they had planted several moles.\nOsama Bin Prairie Dog as he is known to intelligence officials is the ace of spades in the <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/the-poisoning-of-the-prairie-dogs-there-is-another-solution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">prairie dog<\/a> deck of most wanted prairie dogs.  \u201cWe have captured or killed numbers two through 16 but have been unable to find our number one,\u201d said Cuthbert.  \u201cWe believe that fortune is about to change.\u201d\nFinding Osama Bin Prairie Dog would mean a lot to hundreds of Stapleton residents who have been annoyed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/westerly-creek-%E2%80%9Cclean-up%E2%80%9D-june-23rd-forrest-city-seeking-hunters-to-kill-prairie-dogs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">prairie dog <\/a> population over the years.  \u201cI have lived here for six years,\u201d said resident Kyle Schall.  \u201cI go by the destruction they have caused on runs, bike rides, and walks, and it is heartbreaking.  It will be a big day in Stapleton when the leader is finally taken out.\u201d\nOther residents are more sympathetic to the prairie dog cause.  \u201cI am not saying that the alleged damage to the ecosystem hasn\u2019t been caused,\u201d said resident Kim Wilber.  \u201cWhat I am saying is that we are Stapleton, and we should be more humane.  <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/prairie-dogs-remind-residents-%E2%80%9Cwe-have-rights-too%E2%80%9D\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Prairie dogs have rights<\/a>, and deserve to stand trial, just like any other Stapleton residents.\u201d\nThe Forest City Intelligence Agency expects that they will catch Osama Bin Prairie Dog within the next three weeks.  \u201cAt this point, it is just a matter of time,\u201d said Cuthbert.  \u201cWe will continue to tighten the perimeter and eventually, he will be flushed out, and captured or killed.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[115],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3623","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-56","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3623\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
