Because it’s too far to walk!
The joke “Why do birds fly south for the winter? Because it’s too far to walk!” plays on the common knowledge that many bird species migrate south during colder months. The primary reason for this migration is to access warmer climates and more abundant food sources. The setup of the joke leads the listener to anticipate a scientific or logical explanation. However, the punchline humorously subverts this expectation by suggesting that birds fly south simply because walking would be too long a journey.
Because their joke writer comes from the northern hemisphere.
