Migration

Why do birds come and go with the seasons? In this BrainPOP UK movie, Tim explains the natural phenomenon of migration, the instinctive movement of large groups of animals. In this educational, animated movie you'll learn about the three different reasons why animals migrate and why these movements tend to take place at the same time every year. You'll also find out which animals do the migrating, about other types of migrations, like the nomadic movement of elephants, and why locusts stay in one place till the food runs out. Find out how animals know where they're going; when to set off, and what kind of environmental clues they use to calibrate their internal clocks. Plus, find out why migration's not just for the birds, either! Look, the butterflies are migrating!
