Tukya - Hopi Baked Prairie Dog
1 fresh-killed prairie dog per person
pepper
salt
seasonings
Kill the prairie dogs; immediately singe the fur completely to get rid of fleas. Scrape the carcass to remove any fur or ash, and wash it well with clear water. Dress as you would a rabbit and leave whole. Stuff body cavity with salt, pepper, and seasonings. Bake in a 350 degree oven for three hours, or until tender.
