Whales and some species of birds migrate across
continents and oceans to avoid cold weather of their
origin country. This is called migration.

The Kuala Gula Bird Sanctuary in Perak is one of
the places for birds from cold regions of northern
Asia and Europe to stop and rest before continuing
their migration to hot regions such as Australia.

Milky stork, lesser adjutant, and sandpiper
are examples of migratory birds in Kuala Gula.
