Late summer plateau pika spatial habitat use revealed by high‐resolution wildlife tracking and unmanned aerial vehicle data on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Tiny “ecosystem engineers,” plateau pikas range across 1600 m², about two basketball courts, mixing soil and nutrients that sustain Tibet's fragile grasslands. Custom‐made trackers and drone imagery show dawn‐to‐dusk surface foraging and nested‐scale patch choices, offering fresh guidance for wildlife‐friendly grazing management.
