Critically endangered?

The Critically Endangered page lists this as, well, critically endangered. The information bar on the right says otherwise. Any experts know any more on this animal? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JeffreyGomez (talk • contribs) 09:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Prey and interaction with environment and other species (haypiles as food)

See the Wildpro cite "Forrest's pika — Ochotona forresti". Wild Pro.. This would be a good addition to the text. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:12, 12 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It has reliability issues... On one of my earlier GANs, I found out that the website was to be replaced. Adityavagarwal (talk) 13:18, 12 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wilson citations missing

We don't seem to have in this article the citations to books by Wilson. These are common in the other Pika articles we have been working on. There are lots of relevant sources listed here. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:57, 12 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How is it both endemic to central China and found in other countries?

If I'm reading this right, the distribution section contradicts itself. Is it endemic to Central China, or is it found in four different countries? TryKid ^{[dubious – discuss]} 16:20, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
