Hello Everyone!<\/p>\n
For science today, we are talking about how animals receive\u00a0migration cues<\/strong>\u00a0that tell them when it is time to travel. There are\u00a0external cues\u00a0<\/strong>(photoperiod, shifting seasons, food\/water availability) and\u00a0internal cues<\/strong>\u00a0(fat reserves, circadian rhythms).<\/p>\n Please watch the following videos to find out the external or internal cues for each animal.<\/strong>\u00a0Record your answers on the handout so we can discuss! All videos are created by National Geographic and are available on YouTube.\u00a0A couple have ads, so just wait patiently, as they are short.<\/em><\/p>\n Wildebeest Migration<\/a><\/p>\n Red Crab Migration<\/a><\/p>\n Monarch Butterfly Migration<\/a><\/p>\n Sockeye Salmon Migration<\/a><\/p>\n Sperm Whale Migration<\/a><\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0Animals Migration Videos Collection<\/a><\/p>\n If you want to learn more about animal migration, here are some other videos to watch at home.<\/strong>\u00a0This may help you to choose an animal that migrates, as everyone will be making a Puppet Pal presentation on one!<\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0The Greatest Animal Migration<\/a>\u00a0(43 minutes)<\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0Masters of Migration: Sandhill Cranes<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0(2:16)<\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0Epic Migrations in Yellowstone<\/a>\u00a0(2:35)<\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0Tundra Swans Migration<\/a>\u00a0(3:03)<\/p>\n The Atlantic\u00a0Revealing Patterns of Migration in Motion<\/a><\/p>\n All About Birds\u00a0Watch Migrations of 188 Birds<\/a><\/p>\n The Economist 1843\u00a0Out in the Blue Migration Patterns of Animals in Ocean<\/a><\/p>\n National Geographic\u00a0See What Birds Are Going Extinct<\/a><\/p>\n Globe and Mail\u00a0Study Shows Human Activity Affecting Animal Migration<\/a><\/p>\n Nature\u00a0Animals Worldwide Stick Closer to Home Because of Human Activity<\/a><\/p>\n YouTube\u00a0Global Animal Movements Based on Movebank<\/a><\/p>\n
