=TUNA FISH=

Tuna are the biggest fish from the family of Scombridae. The oldest tunas have been over 25 years old. They are very fast swimmers, some species are capable of speeds 80 km/h. They grow up to 2-4,5 meters and can weight almost 500 kilograms. The biggest tuna fish in the world have been 680 kilograms. The colour of it’s back is the seablue and the sides are silver-grey. The front dorsal fin is yellow and the other are black or dark grey. They have radiated over to the Atlantic ocean, the Mediterranean Sea and to the Black Sea. Tuna lives in the little groups 500-1000 depth from the sea level.

Endangered species are animals who has the risk that they can disappear conclusively from the world. Tuna fish are really respected fish in the world what explains why is it so expensive too. There are risk that specie could die out because its huge numbers of overfishing.

Authorities responsible animal preservation have taken no action to save the tuna fish. There has been only some discussion of tuna fish fishing restriction. Countries which are fishing a lot of tuna fish, for example Japan, fiercely opposed all restrictions. That’s why is still without any protect.

We all should do something to protect Tuna. You can for example prefer some other fish sushi, or cucumber sushi, before tuna sushi. It’s important we don’t eat tuna to much. Small everyday choices are more important than you could maybe believe.
