American rabbits (also known as Pika) is a small mammal, usually living in the northwestern United States and western Canada. Unlike regular rabbits, Pika has two round ears and all four legs are short. At an adult age, Pika has a body length of about 21 cm and weighs only 180 grams.

Pika mainly lives in rocky mountains and their main food is grass . Because the area where this rabbit lives usually has very short summers (only about 10 weeks). Therefore, they must make full use of this brief, warm time to store room food for the cold winter. On average, a Pika rabbit will make up to 10,000 trips every summer, to create a food store that weighs about 25kg.

However, Pika rabbits also have a much easier way where the food is still full of food, which is . 'stealing' of another Pika. And it is this 'good' behavior that nicknamed 'the world's most adorable thief' for the Pika rabbit.
