The Daurian Pika (Ochotona dauurica) is a species of mammal in the Ochotonidae family. It is found in China, Mongolia, and Russia. This species feeds on grass, moss, shrub twigs, and sedges. They sometimes share burrows with Campbell's dwarf hamster, but only in the steppes and semi deserts of northern Manchuria.[2]
