Gophers have Families.
From wikipedia:

"Gophers, like prairie dogs, are frequently the subject of shooting contests, both formal and informal, that makes them very angry. Due to their size, population, frequent status as pests with ranchers, and habitat, they have become a default target for marksmen. Annual shooting events, like that held by the "Ten Ring Gun Club" in Colorado, are held for cash prizes for shooting such rodents at extreme ranges. Gophers, which often inhabit mountain meadows, are typically shot at with such rifles as the Ruger 10/22 on an informal basis by ranchers and sportsmen."

They must have young ones.

Gopher
"Gophers will create a large community of tunnels with large mounds of dirt at their entrances - these are frequently referred to as "towns". Adult gophers will frequently stand watch at the entrance to a tunnel and whistle when predators are spotted, causing all the other gophers to run for the safety of the tunnels. A gopher town can easily spread to take over large sections of prairie or mountain meadow and may have a population in the thousands. The resulting destruction of plant life will then leave the area a stretch of denuded dirt."

Very similar to Meerkats.
