Plateau pikas make burrows primarily for shelter and protection from predators, as well as to regulate their temperature and maintain a suitable microhabitat. These burrows provide a safe environment for nesting and raising their young. Additionally, the burrowing behavior helps aerate the soil and promotes vegetation growth, which is beneficial for their foraging needs. Overall, burrows are essential for their survival in the harsh conditions of their high-altitude habitats.
