Prairie dog reacts hilariously to being caught

An amusing video has emerged of a Prairie Dog looking aghast after being filmed tearing pieces of bark off a tree.

The footage, captured at Twycross Zoo last week, shows the black-tailed prairie dog reacting in a hilarious way after realising it is being filmed.

"This is the face you make when you get caught," the filmer wrote online.

"The face it makes is priceless!"
