About:
Drought Prairie Dog is an image macro of a Prairie Dog that appears to be crawling through a desert begging for water. A relatively new meme, it has been used primarily to suggest begging, often sarcastically.
Origin:
This image first gained true popularity on Reddit when posted by user u/PlanetoftheAthiests [1]. There is a degree of controversy regarding whether or not this is a forced meme, due to the nature of the post. However, at this point it has been quickly embraced by the r/AdviceAnimals subreddit [2].
The oldest confirmed use of the image was on 2014 in an article from The Huffington Post [3]. The image appears in the portfolio of stock photographer Andrey Kuzmin on several stock photography sites, the oldest dated 2011 [4][5][6]. Research is ongoing to determine if this is the point of origin.
