do wild animals know somewhere as “home”?

270 viewsBiologyOther

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 :))

Totaly depends on the animal. Many animals have a territory, i would claim thats something like a home. Wolves, lions and so on have that.

Salmon returns back to the river they grew up in.

Migrating birds normaly return to the same general area, they dont keep the old nests.
