The American pika (Ochotona princeps) is a small, herbivorous relative of rabbits and hares. This little mammal is recognizable by its small, round, ovate body but also, and perhaps mostly, because of its moderately-large suborbicular (i.e., approximately circular) ears that are hairy on both surfaces.
