Snack-stealing pika is just too CUTE 😍 | Mammals - BBC

Some adorable pikas wait all winter for the sun to shine, so they can gather food and build their nests. But other cheeky pikas wait for their neighbours to do the hard work, while they sit back and wait for the perfect time to strike.
Born to survive. Built to thrive.

PICKPOCKET PIKA!!!!!!!!!!

[@ednaguerrero2523]

Marvelous ❤

[@BrianLockett]

No, this isn't actually where Pikachu gets its name. "Pika" is a Japanese onomatopoeia for "electric spark," not a reference to the pika, despite rodential similarities. ("Chu" is the "mouse" part of the Japanese name.)
Yes, it's a very cute coincidence.

[@BrianLockett]

Also, despite looking like rodents, pikas aren't rodents but cousins to rabbits and hares.
(And, no, bunnies technically aren't rodents, either. Similar style as species but different classification.)

Interesting coincidence. Thanks for sharing that! :)

[@jona_KardCiv1]

In the military there is a saying. There is always that 10%. The low lifes.

[@anatoliypankevych4853]

The longer you think stealing is cute, the longer you have this situation in UK going on. The less you’re going to have the hardworking type left

[@derekcash3608]

Pikas are stealing stuff in the UK?

[@jennilynne1977]

I read that like Pikachu, not how it's actually pronounced.

[@12swarasapte70]
