Movement is a basic property of most animals. Animals usually move in search of food and water or in search of a mate. Therefore, food, water and mating are the main "motives" for the movement of animals. Some animals travel relatively small distances in space. However, some species of animals are willing and able to travel great distances just to find new food sources or to reproduce.

Some of the extreme examples are the migratory grasshopper, the monarch butterfly, but also some fish such as salmon, eel, etc. The migratory locust has been known since ancient times, it is even mentioned in the Bible as a great plague. We will try to present how this species enters the migratory phase by using some of our grasshopper species for demonstration as well as a multimedia presentation of the impact on the environment. Also, the path that the monarch butterfly crosses from the north of Canada all the way to Mexico will be shown.

That not everything is in food is confirmed by salmon and eel that cross long distances just to reproduce in the place where they themselves came into the world. On their way, from the sea to the rivers, salmon come across numerous obstacles, and many of them fail to overcome them. However, those who succeed will eventually die quickly, but not in vain! The eel has a similar life story, but it heads to the sea, the far Sargasso Sea, from where its younger ones will return to the European rivers to continue their lives. We will use the juveniles of some of our fish species to bring the significance and dimensions of the endeavors undertaken by these fish species closer to the visitors. Maps of migrations will also be shown, as well as a multimedia presentation of such trips.
