salmon /ˈsæmən/ is the common name for several species of ray-finned fish in the

 family salmonidae. Other fish in the same family include trout, char, grayling and 

whitefish. Salmon are native to tributaries of the north atlantic (genus salmo) and 

pacific ocean (genus oncorhynchus). Many species of salmon have been introduced

 into non-native environments such as the great lakes of north america and 

patagonia in south america. Salmon are intensively farmed in many parts of the world.

typically, salmon are anadromous: they hatch in fresh water, migrate to the ocean,

 then return to fresh water to reproduce. However, populations of several species are 

restricted to fresh water through their lives. Folklore has it that the fish return to the 

exact spot where they hatched to spawn. Tracking studies have shown this to be 

mostly true. A portion of a returning salmon run may stray and spawn in different 

freshwater systems; the percent of straying depends on the species of salmon. 

homing behavior has been shown to depend on olfactory memory. Salmon 

date back to the neogene.
