- selcuka 3y agoWell, it's also an animal [1]: > A pika is a small, mountain-dwelling mammal native to Asia and North America. With short limbs, a very round body, an even coat of fur, and no external tail, they resemble their close relative, the rabbit, but with short, rounded ears. The large-eared pika of the Himalayas and nearby mountains lives at elevations of more than 6,000 m (20,000 ft). [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pika https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pika
