"Some land animals embark on epic migration journeys, covering hundreds of kilometers over time as they move between feeding grounds, safer habitats with fewer predators, and their home ranges. This graphic visualizes the longest known land animal terrestrial migrations in kilometers. The data comes from the study “Longest terrestrial migrations and movements around the world” by Joly, K., Gurarie, E., Sorum, M.S. et al. published in 2019." https://www.visualcapitalist.com/ranked-land-animals-with-longest-migrations/

Caribou traverse over 1,200km 🦌, while zebras cover ca 500km 🦓. Side by side, their journeys remind us how incredible and resilient the natural world 🌍 truly is. And this is terrestrial only.
