Thousands of migrants from Central America, Honduras, Guatemala and EL Salvador alike, began to wind north towards the US-Mexico border in an attempt to flee persecution, poverty and violence in their home countries since October 13. Even though might face a series of dangers such as criminal gangs, hunger and dehydration, many of the migrants still chose to set off on the journey. /VCG Photo

An opinion poll by the Guardian showed that 61 percent of rural Mexicans supported the caravan migrants. "I was worried. I heard they were bad people but then I saw these kids," said Zuri Flores, 22 to the Guardian, a girl who handed out food and drinks to weary the caravan on a recent day. /VCG Photo
