Did you know Pikas don't hibernate? Instead, they "haypile." 🌿 Throughout the short alpine summer, they make up to 100 trips daily to gather vegetation. They sun-dry their harvest to prevent mold and store it in rock crevices. When winter buries the mountains, they live entirely off these saved flowers! 🏔️✨

Meet the Aye-Aye: the master of acoustic hunting! Instead of using sight, this unique lemur taps on tree bark to listen for insects moving underneath. Its specialized long middle finger then extracts the prey with incredible precision. A survival method found in no other primate!
