Migration is a remarkable natural phenomenon, with animals traveling thousands of miles across land, sea, and air to find food, breeding grounds, or more favorable climates. Birds, such as the Arctic tern, migrate across the globe, while marine animals like humpback whales journey between feeding and breeding areas. Migration plays a vital role in ecosystems, as animals contribute to nutrient cycles, pollination, and seed dispersal along their routes. However, human activities like deforestation and pollution are disrupting these pathways, making it harder for animals to complete their journeys.

Zoos educate the public about migration and the importance of protecting migratory routes. Many zoos have exhibits dedicated to migratory species, showing the incredible distances they travel and the challenges they face. Through partnerships with conservation organizations, zoos support efforts to protect migratory pathways, helping to conserve habitats along these routes and reduce threats like poaching and habitat loss. By raising awareness, zoos help visitors understand the critical role migration plays in maintaining global biodiversity and the need to protect these natural corridors for future generations.
