Natal

Salmon and steelhead start their lives in freshwater streams and tributaries. They then migrate downstream, rearing and maturing, before they reach the ocean. They live in the ocean for 2 to 5 years, migrating thousands of miles, before beginning the journey upstream to their natal streams where they spawn to produce the next generation of fish.

Sea turtles return to their natal beaches to nest.

The constituents of the nation are a land and a people: the "natal", which is not necessarily innate, and the "popular," which is not necessarily pregiven.
