  abstract = {{L}ong-distance migration is a widespread process evolved independently in several animal groups in terrestrial and marine ecosystems. {M}any factors contribute to the migration process and of primary importance are intra-specific competition and seasonality in the resource distribution. {A}daptive migration in direction of increasing fitness should lead to the ideal free distribution ({IFD}) which is the evolutionary stable strategy of the habitat selection game. {W}e introduce a migration game which focuses on migrating dynamics leading to the {IFD} for age-structured populations and in time varying habitats, where dispersal is costly. {T}he model predicts migration dynamics between these habitats and the corresponding population distribution. {W}hen applied to {A}tlantic bluefin tunas, it predicts their migration routes and their seasonal distribution. {T}he largest biomass is located in the spawning areas which have also the largest diversity in the age-structure. {D}istant feeding areas are occupied on a seasonal base and often by larger individuals, in agreement with empirical observations. {M}oreover, we show that only a selected number of migratory routes emerge as those effectively used by tunas.},
