Prairie dogging (verb),
any of a genus (Cynomys) of gregarious burrowing rodents of the squirrel family chiefly of central and western U.S. plains
especially : a black-tailed rodent (C. ludovicianus) that usually lives in extensive colonial office spaces.
Definition: to pop up like a prairie dog in an office setting and look around the room from ones cubicle for a few seconds. Often done at near simultaneous times by other employees (prairie dogs) in said environment. Looks similar to skill based games where one attempts to smash down the prairie dogs with a padded hammer.
I was prairie dogging at work from my cubicle and I saw the some guy pat the boss on his butt and the boss winked back.
