With its adorable leaf-in-mouth pose, Pika showcases its ingenious strategy to survive the cold months ahead. This North American cutie has formed colonies where each member claims their own territory within autumn. It's like having your very own slice of paradise! Related to rabbits but with an undeniable charm of its own, Pika spends its days feasting on delectable grasses and herbs. But here's where things get interesting - instead of devouring everything in sight, our clever friend stores small piles of "hay" beneath boulders! Talk about being resourceful.
