Guided by instinct, the salmon will return after years at sea to the river of its birth to spawn - leaping over any obstacles in its way, braving weirs and waterfalls, hurling itself many feet out of the water until it surmounts the obstacle or dies of exhaustion in the attempt; there is no turning back. Even old salmon rivers such as the Thames, now ruined by pollution do not deter this lordly fish, which swims up its ancestral channel till it dies.
