Large-eared pika (Ochotona macrotis)
Description:
The large-eared pika (Ochotona macrotis) is a small mammal belonging to the Ochotonidae family, which also includes other species of pikas. These charming creatures are characterized by their distinctive large ears, which contribute to their keen sense of hearing. With a compact body and a short, round tail, the large-eared pika has a fur coat that varies in color, typically ranging from brown to gray, providing effective camouflage in its rocky mountainous habitats.
Large-eared pikas are primarily found in alpine and subalpine regions of Central Asia, including parts of China and Mongolia. These herbivorous mammals graze on a variety of plants, grasses, and mosses, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of their ecosystem. Their burrow systems, often constructed among rocks and boulders, serve as shelters against predators and harsh weather conditions.
As social animals, large-eared pikas engage in vocalizations and body language to communicate with one another. Their high-pitched calls and distinct behaviors contribute to the intricate social structure within their colonies. Despite their small size, large-eared pikas are known for their resilience in harsh mountain environments, adapting to the challenges presented by changing seasons and altitudes.
