\\nMatt gives a FIT with a bonus question and then goes on a historical tangent about the history of an ecological phenomenon described as "persistent and straightened-out movement effected by the animal\\u2019s own locomotory exertions or by its active embarkation on a vehicle.\\xa0 It depends on some temporary inhibition of station-keeping responses, but promotes their eventual disinhibition and recurrence."

\\nThis FIT was inspired by the recent book, Tne Next Great Migration written by Sonia Shah.
