What does a pika sound like? Have a listen! Easily recognizable by their “EEP!” call, pikas are alpine animals that live under rocks in the talus slopes of Glacier National Park. These small but mighty herbivores spend all summer gathering plant materials and storing them under rock enclosures. This allows them to endure the harsh climate of the mountains year-round without having to hibernate or go to lower elevations. Highly sensitive to temperatures above 78 degrees Fahrenheit, pikas are seen
