EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by John Cancalosi, we catch a glimpse of CAN-2683, also known as Pika - a furry little creature with an impressive talent for food storage. Hailing from the picturesque talus slopes and rock slides near timberline in Colorado's high mountains, Pika is all about preparing for winter like a pro! 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. This wildlife wonder knows that good things come to those who plan ahead. So while others are scrambling for food during winter hibernation, Pika can kick back and enjoy its well-stocked pantry. So next time you're feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges or simply need some inspiration for your snack stash at home, remember our furry friend CAN-2683 - the ultimate foodie who teaches us that preparation is key!
