i know with domesticated pets they’ve gotten used to a certain place as home, but with wild animals like lions and giraffes, do they have a spot that they consider “home” after they’ve gone hunting or do they keep travelling forever like nomads?
like what about birds? they migrate every so often, do they “come back” or do they just keep travelling onto the next new place?
just curious :))

Yeah, it all depends on the animal. Many build nests or dens. Other have a home range they stay within.
5 years ago we put out bird feeders and attracted a pair of Cardinals. They built a nest nearby and had chicks. The following year they came back again and their male offspring also showed up with his own new friend. So two pairs nested in our yard that year. This year we have at least 8 pair of Cardinals. The original pair still nest in the same tree every year.
