Fish usually migrate because of diet or reproductive needs, although in some cases the reason for migration remains unknown.

Famous quotes containing the word fish:
“Until they saw, over the mists
of Venus, two fish creatures stop
on spangled legs and crawl
from the belly of the sea.
And from the planet park
they heard the new fruit drop.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
