How can you remember something you never learned?

This photograph intrigues me. Why?  Because these salmon left this stream five years ago when they were fry. They have never seen a grizzly bear. But here they are giving the bear a wide berth. They know it is a predator.  How do they know that?  Answer: it had to be in their DNA.  This picture is solid, scientific proof that tabula rasa is false. If salmon were born with no mental content and had to learn all from experience or perception, they would not know this grizzly was a predator. But they do know. If fish can inherit mental content, then human beings must be able to do so as well.  www.authormasterminds.com/steve-levi; https://bit.ly/2WwBElt.
