It depends on the salmon. But most swim hundreds of miles from where they were born, then swim back there to spawn.
The sockeye salmon of Redfish Lake in Idaho have the longest migration of any sockeye salmon, traveling about 900 miles from Redfish Lake in central Idaho to the mouth of the Columbia River. And even after all that swimming, they're still not done! From there, they will proceed on their ocean migration up to Alaska, another couple thousand miles.
Sadly, Redfish Lake sockeye are terribly endangered. Because of overfishing and a gauntlet of dams that the salmon must bypass to get to and from the ocean, salmon returns of up to 30,000 fish in the past are now down to just a few hundred. But even that is good news, since last year, only four spawning salmon survived the journey back to the lake.
The salmon are sent chemical cues that send them back to the streams of their birth. From there, they battle upstream to spawn. The concept being , it was good enough for them, it will be good enough for the offspring.
Because they are traveling back to where they were hatched, and then they lay their eggs there. Basically, its their life cycle, and its an instinct to be able to know exactly where you where hatched.
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill think they may have the answer: The animals' brains focus on an "address" on the Earth based on the Earth's magnetic field. That magnetic field is different -- yet, unique, in the actual sense of that oft-misused word -- at every point on the globe. The above statement is true, although, in Alaska, the crossing-over to other streams allows salmon to populate new streams, such as those that emerge as a glacier retreats. The precise method salmon use to navigate has not been entirely established, though their keen sense of smellis involved. In all species of Pacific salmon, the mature individuals die within a few days or weeks of spawning, a trait known as semelparity.
to lay their eggs but once they lay their eggs they die and the babys hatched and go to where they were born and where their mother was born and then their babys got to the place where they were born and you get the point.
Because salty water infests their gillousususus with poisonous noxious gas known as Tf3, this then mutates their inner membranes and thus removes their abdominal liver from their genital warts without consent from the muffin man.

They look for their relatives.
it is called migration.
Yes, it is possible for a raccoon to find its way back from where it was before...My neighbor took one away, and less than 22 hours it was back...I was shocked and mad...
As long as it's not a cross-country trek a horse will be able to find his way home. In fact it is very common when a rider falls and ends up walking back to the barn minus horse.
The quickest way to tell the difference between a Chinook (King) and a Coho Salmon is the Chinook has black gums, large spots down its back and on its entire tail fin. The Coho has white gums, smaller spots on its back and on only the top half of its tail.
There was not a salmon dance Not true..... "By September, the salmon began working their way upstream to spawn. Each day, during his soak, Cole watched them. He could see them leaping high out of the water, trying to make their way up through the gushing gorge of water above the pond. When the salmon run finished several weeks later, Cole danced their dance and carved their figure into his totem." (97) To tie it back to a lesson, think about how the salmon life cycle works and what Cole would have taken from it.

One can find the song You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home on the Hannah Montana: The Movie soundtrack. You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home is the title track for both the album and movie.

Yes it is possible. If the cat had a really good caring home and was separated from that home by 7-10 miles there is no way that cat is not going to find it's way back.
it is called migration.
Sometimes the dog finds its way back to your home.
