Because pikas do not hibernate, this relative of the rabbit must gather. Add pillows and a destination, and you’re ready to camp the day you pick it up. The pika is considered an indicator species for detecting ecological effects of. All of our cabin LED lights are warm white, which adds to the warm inviting feeling of our trailer.Įvery Timberleaf Trailers Pika comes standard with our large skylight, skylight shade, 4-speed electric fan, two doors, two windows, and mattress. The cabin is illuminated by three LED lamps, two reading lamps above the head of the bed, and a dome lamp toward the foot of the bed. We have also included a pair of USB ports and GFI outlet at the foot of the bed.

The Pika’s cabin is built around a double size mattress, slightly more compact than our Classic, at 54 inches wide, the Pika comfortably sleeps two in its cozy cabin making it one of the most comfortable small camping trailers.ĭiffering from the Classic, which features a headboard with sliding bypass doors for storage, and a full-width cabinet above your feet, in order to maintain the spacious feel inside, we strayed from our tradition and introduce a series of stretch-netting cargo storage locations – one on either side of the mattress by the doors, and a larger one above the foot of the bed. We can only hope that the Weidong’s effort will not come in vain and in the end, the Ilis will survive.Compact and spacious, rarely do such words work so well together. That is even sooner than we even manage to get to know this species at all. So far however, there are no known measures that would help save the Ili pika, so it’s possible, that they might become extinct only several decades after their discovery. Unlike the authorities, who are doing virtually nothing for their rescue, Li Weidong has been financing research from his own resources and he is trying to save the species. This, together with air pollution, is the reason that they’re dying out. and they basically have nowhere further to go. l., today we won’t find them lower than 4,100 m a. While formerly, the Ilis live at the altitude of around 3,000 m a. With short limbs, 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 glaciers are disappearing and the eternal snow remains only at increasingly greater heights. A pika ( / pak / PY-k archaically spelled pica) is a small, mountain-dwelling mammal found in Asia and North America. Since due to the global warming Ili is moving to increasingly higher mountain places of the Tian-Shan mountain range in the Xinjiang province. In May 2014, the naturalist Li Weidong, the original discoverer of this species, managed to find the first Ili since its discovery in Northwest China and also one of the last living Ilis ever. This adorable rabbit relative sounds an alarm for global warming. Thanks to this, it is also sometimes nicknamed the “magic rabbit”. We know almost nothing about its way of life.
It grows to about 20 cm and feeds on plants that it leaves to dry for the winter. It was discovered in 1983, and due to its rarity, we know only very little about it. It looks like a cousin of the rabbit with short rounded ears and bright-coloured fur.
The Ili pika belongs to the order of Lagomorphs. Today, their population is estimated at less than one thousand and continues to decrease. During the past 20 years, the number of individuals of this species declined rapidly (about 70%) and it was considered to be essentially extinct. Ochotona iliensis, that is the Ili pika is not only probably the cutest rodent, but also one of the most endangered animals in the world.
