Research Question: How does the amount of rainfall affect the lions, zebra, and impala's migration?
Hypothesis: The different rainfall averages will have an affect on the way that many animals migrate and how many animals have been spotted on camera.
Results: The average amount of rainfall is displayed in one graph and the number of migrated animals is displayed in another graph. In this analysis we will be comparing the amount of rainfall during the different months of the year to the number of animals that have migrated. The rainfall chart that was created is displaying the average rainfall in the National Serengeti Park through the course of a year. As you can tell from the graph the months that had the most rainfall are March, April, and November. The only animal that really traveled during the time was the zebra group. The same goes for the month of February. During the months of March, April and May the number of animals that were traveling increased by a large amount.
If we were to continue our research we could dive more into different types of animals and the climates that could possibly affect them not just rain fall but heat and maybe the snow. We could collect weather data and do the same with the chart we have already.
