In September the pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) are drawn to the shiretoko peninsula by the scent of fresh water. After a few days of acclimating themselves to fresh water, they will suddenly swim upstream to spawn and die. 9月になると真水の匂いをたどり、知床半島に集まってくるカラフトマス。数日間真水に体を慣らし、やがて一気に川を遡上していく。無事に産卵を終えるとその場で一生を終える
