The human versions also call themselves snowbirds. The rich ones mostly fly somewhere "nice". Train kids and modern hobos hitch a ride to a more hospitable climate. The likes of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas travel in corporate-funded luxury RVs. The Sonora Desert is full of the same assholes fucking up Florida. They see "desert" and think it's a wasteland, instead of a functioning ecosystem.
