Migration

See Lesson Ideas for this topic

When an animal migrates, it moves to a different place. Animals migrate for many different reasons. Some animals migrate to find better sources of food, water, or shelter. Other animals migrate to visit particular breeding grounds, rear their young, or find warmer climates. The frequency of animals’ migrations also differs. We recommend watching the Seasons movie together as a review. Some animals migrate seasonally, others migrate once in a lifetime or only to breed, and others are nomadic and migrate wherever the best resources and environments are at that time.
