Migration, in ecology, is the large-scale movement of members of a species to a different environment. Migration is a natural behavior and component of the life cycle of many species of mobile organisms, not limited to animals, though animal migration is the best known type. Migration is often cyclical, frequently occurring on a seasonal basis, and in some cases on a daily basis. Species migrate to take advantage of more favorable conditions with respect to food availability, safety from predation, mating opportunity, or other environmental factors.^[1][2] Types of migration include:

• Animal migration, the physical movement by animals from one area to another
  • Bird migration, the regular seasonal journey undertaken by many species of birds
  • Reverse migration, a phenomenon in bird migration
  • Fish migration, the regular journey of fish
  • Insect migration, the seasonal movement of insects
  • Lepidoptera migration, the movement of butterflies and moths
• Diel vertical migration, a daily migration undertaken by some ocean organisms
