Exactly. Just like trout know that croakers eat their eggs. It's instinct because somewhere down the line they learned it and it passed down.

It's like ducks. It's their instinct to fly south but they leaned that they don't have to fly as far as Louisiana anymore. They learned to see a DU project sign and know that everything is fine. The ponds will not freeze and their will be food there. A few generations later and it's now instinct
