Meet the Corleys: Mom and Pop and their three grown kids-Jeff, Ida, and Junior-a zany but lovable family living in a changing neighborhood in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Mom wants to fix each of her children's problems-Jeff's gambling, Ida's promiscuity, Junior's drinking-and to create a normal family. She convinces Pop to sell the family land and give $500,000 to each of their children, believing the money will solve their woes. However, hundreds of prairie dogs and the City Council's animal ordinance stop the sale. The Corleys try various methods to remove the critters-shooting them, blowing them up, rounding them up and trucking them away-but they all fail. Immersed in conflict, humor, and irony, the prairie dogs come up out of their holes and into each of the Corleys' hearts, mysteriously softening their hard edges, helping them to find healing deep in Mother Nature. As disease befalls the prairie dogs, and just as it seems the Corleys will get rich, they discover that it is love, not money that is the true wealth of their family.
