Some species migrate to find food, better conditions, or suitable climates. For example, European swallows migrate south for warmer weather and more food availability [4]. Additionally, animals may migrate for reproductive reasons, such as Atlantic salmon returning to their birth rivers to spawn [5]. Migratory behavior often involves seasonal movements and return journeys, which distinguishes it from other types of animal movement [5][6].
