Ochotona Collaris is a scientific name that refers to a particular species of mammals known as the collar pika. Pikas are small, herbivorous mammals that typically inhabit high rocky mountain regions and tundras. They are also commonly called coneys or rock rabbits. Some synonyms for Ochotona Collaris include the collared pika, the Tibetan pika, the Mongolian pika, and the plateau pika. These synonyms describe the same species of animal and can be used interchangeably in scientific documents and discussions. Although they are small, pikas play an important role in their ecosystems as they serve as prey for carnivorous animals and help distribute nutrients throughout the ecosystem through their waste.
