Population dynamics and responses to management of plateau pikas Ochotona curzoniae [PDF]
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2007 Summary Plateau pikas Ochotona curzoniae are considered a pest species on the Tibetan Plateau because they compete with livestock for forage and their burrowing could contribute to soil erosion. The effectiveness of pest control programmes in Tibet has not been measured, and it is not known whether changes in livestock management have exacerbated ...
