Some animals move to new places when the weather changes! 🐦 They fly or walk far away to find food or a warm home. Just like when you wear a coat in winter, animals need to find cozy places too!
For example, birds fly south when it gets cold, and then come back when it's warm again. 🌞
Animals migrate to survive! 🌍 They move to find food, escape cold weather, or have babies in safe places. Birds, whales, and even butterflies travel thousands of miles every year!
Migration is a survival strategy for many animals. They travel long distances to adapt to changing environments. Scientists study migration patterns to understand how animals navigate—some use the sun, stars, or even Earth’s magnetic field! 🧭
| Reason | Example |
|---|---|
| Seasonal food shortage | Caribou move to find lichen in winter |
| Breeding grounds | Sea turtles return to birth beaches |
| Climate avoidance | Monarch butterflies flee cold |
Some migrations are shrinking due to climate change, forcing animals to adapt or perish.
