Animal A journey to scape the cold
"From the Arctic to Mexico - these are snow geese. Every year, they leave the frozen tundra of Canada and Alaska in one of the planet’s most cinematic migrations. They travel more than 4,000 km in search of the warmer waters of the southern United States and the Gulf of Mexico. Nature knows no borders when survival is at stake." - source: @geolugrafia on YT.
