birth in places where there is an abundance of flower buds of cottongrass
and other vegetation. They stay in the region for 7 to 10 days to feed.
It’s not yet known exactly what environmental signs influence the
start of migration, but a group of pregnant females was observed to adjust
their rate of migration. This group of cows was delayed on account of the
depth of the snow. But once migration began, they traveled more than 40
kilometers (25 miles) a day, arriving where they were to give birth at the

same time as another group of cows that had set off a month before them,
having covered a distance of only 6 kilometers (3 1/2 miles) a day. This is
an astounding indication of consciousness. Whatever the conditions, God
has inspired these animals to be where they should be, at the time they
should be. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for an animal to calculate
the distance to the place where it will give birth, how many days remain
until that time, and how far it should travel every day to get there on time.
A caribou does not have such powers of judgment.
