Salmon migrate in order to reproduce. Salmon live most of their lives in the ocean, but reproduce in rivers. Spawning time depends on the location. When it is time to spawn, the fish swim upriver. Many are caught by predators such as bears and humans. When the salmon reach the spawning grounds, they will mate, lay eggs, and die. After the eggs hatch, the young will swim downriver to the sea. The Copper River in Alaska is famous for salmon. Here is a more detailed article on salmon spawning. http://animals.howstuffworks.com/fish/salmon-info3.htm
