What
is migration, anyway?
ANIMAL
MIGRATION
"Many people take trips
periodically, often seasonally, in search of a fair climate, good food,
and a change of scene in pleasant surroundings. Some animals are impelled
to travel for similar reasons, and their trips, too, are often annual and
linked to the seasons. These traveling animals are called migrants and
their trips, migrations."
