Muttamara S. Geographic Variation in Vocalizations of American Pikas (Ochotona princeps) in Southwestern Oregon and Northern California. Research Permit and Reporting System

The distribution of American pika (Ochotona princeps) populations in southwestern Oregon is poorly known and their range is highly fragmented. Isolated, small populations within this region are vulnerable to loss of genetic diversity and prone to extirpation. Vocalizations have been used to study connectedness among populations of pikas in other regions. Variation in calls may result from independent evolutionary or cultural histories and indicate the degree of isolation among populations. The
