Migration is when animals relocate to a more hospitable environment when their habitat becomes too cold, dry, wet, or otherwise uninhabitable. Hibernation is when they sleep through the cold, drought, or whatever they do not like and awaken when that condition has ended. Both migration and hibernation are a method animals use to escape unpleasant conditions.
