Wildlife Migration
Wildlife migration refers to the seasonal movement of animals from one region to another, often in search of food, breeding grounds, or more favorable climates. This behavior is common among various species, including birds, mammals, and fish. For example, monarch butterflies travel thousands of miles between North America and Mexico each year.
Migration patterns can be influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, food availability, and habitat changes. Many animals, like caribou and salmon, follow specific routes that have been used for generations. Understanding these patterns is crucial for conservation efforts and maintaining healthy ecosystems.
