You probably used a .223 or .204 Ruger round as the .22-250 would be just too big for this varmint.

Depends on if you’re targeting the pika or the conservationist.

some conservationists say it may soon be extinct because of global warming.

Um.. hey...? We haven't been having a whole lot of "warming" up here in the PNW for some years now. Even relative newcomers are noting the increasing cold here...

The rodent-sized creature has thick fur and is unable to survive in temperatures much warmer than 80 degrees.
One can't help but wonder how it has survived this long then -- for example, its ancestors somehow managed during the Medieval Warming...

They move with the temperature. Just because they have to follow cooler temperatures to survive doesn't mean they're endangered.
