Imagine going through a change later in your life that makes you seek an environment that would be toxic to the living things you were surrounded with for most of your life.

Salmon hit some point and seek fresh water.
American Eels hit a point and seek salt water.
I wonder if it's uncomfortable. They do adapt yes...notably both go deep into the hostile realm, lay eggs and then die.
Like having the urge to go to IDK high altitude or a gas filled cave for us.

Freshwater continues to be toxic to Pacific salmon once they have left for the ocean. It’s a once in a lifetime transition as they mature and become a saltwater (or as we say on the west coast ‘saltchuck’) species.
When they return to the river of their hatching, they stop eating and die after spawning.
Atlantic salmon can make the transition more than once and survive from what I understand.

Everyone is impressed with the swimming up little waterfalls... but the water is also kind of toxic. It's wild!

They are returning to their childhood homes. Nostalgia is a hell if a drug.

Sometimes we can't ever really go home. You can't swim in the same river twice I suppose.
