Salmon return to their birthplace after they mature because of a strong instinctual drive called homing behavior. This behavior helps them navigate back to the same river or stream where they were born to spawn and ensure the survival of their offspring.

The migration of salmon is when bears or wolves deposit the dying or dead salmon to the ocean into the forest. Salmon's migrate in the ocean to the forest. It links the nutrients. The nutrient in the ocean to the forest. I hope I cleared your Q.
Sperm mature in the epididymis after production.
A group of salmon is called a run when they swim together up a river to spawn.
The hypothesis could be: "Salmon raised in fish farms will have higher levels of toxins, such as mercury, compared to salmon caught in the wild." This hypothesis can be tested by analyzing the toxin levels in both groups of salmon and comparing the results.
yes they do.
Because the most chances of the baby salmon living is when she gives birth to it is in its own birthplace.
Salmon P. Chase Birthplace was created in 1808.
Salmon live in both freshwater and saltwater environments. They are born in freshwater, migrate to the ocean to grow and mature, and then return to freshwater to spawn.
Salmon are anadromous fish, meaning they are born in freshwater, migrate to the ocean to mature, and then return to freshwater to spawn. They can thrive in both freshwater and saltwater environments.
Salmon are typically found in both saltwater and freshwater environments. They are born in freshwater, migrate to the ocean to grow and mature, and then return to freshwater to spawn.
Yes, salmon can survive in both freshwater and saltwater environments. They are anadromous fish, meaning they are born in freshwater, migrate to the ocean to grow and mature, and then return to freshwater to spawn.
They go on it because it is the fate of their life. They are born to travel to the ocean and then come back lay their eggs and die. Them dieing supports many species and the forest its self. It is a very interesting story. Check this page out http://www.squidoo.com/TheSalmonRun
Salmon migrate out to sea, and then return to where they were born to mate.
Salmon spend most of their lives in saltwater and only return to freshwater to spawn. Different species of salmon spend different lengths of time in the ocean due to differences in the amount of time it takes the salmon to sexually mature. Most salmon spend between 1 and 5 years in the Ocean before returning to freshwater to spawn and die.
Salmon will return to their hatching place to spawn. A single group of salmon may travel hundreds of miles back to the river of their birthplace, hopping over waterfalls, swimming upstream until they get to the place where they hatched. They will then mate and lay eggs, beginning into being another cycle of leaving and returning to spawn. This journey is very dangerous, due to bears waiting at the top of waterfalls to catch the returning salmon.
Salmon typically return to hatcheries during their spawning season, which can vary based on the specific species of salmon and their natural migration patterns. In general, salmon can return to hatcheries from late summer to early fall.
