What is the longest trip you have ever taken? No matter how long it was, it can't beat the journey the Arctic tern makes. This small
seabird flies over 40,000 miles between the North and South Poles every year.
As winter approaches in the Arctic, the tern migrates to
the rich summer feeding grounds at the other end of the world. A single tern can travel 1.5 million miles (2.4 million kilometers) over the
course of its life!
The reason is simple: food.
Why do you think the tern travels this far?
According to scientists, the tern's travels are linked to feeding grounds.
The food supply of the tern changes as the seasons change from winter to spring!
Answer
The Arctic tern makes an incredible journey of over 40,000 miles between the North and South Poles every year in search of food.
