Paul Greenberg gives several examples of ways in which technological innovations are transforming the tuna industry, including refrigeration, long-lining, and development of effective net systems. In Japan, fish with white flesh was preferred over fish with red flesh because the red tended to spoil faster, refrigeration allowed fish to be kept fresh longer. Following World War II, Japan needed tuna for food for Japanese and also for export. During the post-war period, Japanese fishermen utilized

nations down to the local level, devastating communities whose dominant sources of labor and revenue hinges on healthy, plentiful stocks of fish. Also, marine life imbalance may affect the targeted fishing of top predators such as billfish, sharks and tuna that eventually disturbs marine communities. In fact, it is causing increased abundance of smaller marine animals at the bottom of the food chain. This in turn has impacts on the rest of the marine ecosystem, such as the increased growth of algae and

If fishing with a worm, try inflating the worm with air using a syringe (there are special worm syringes for this that you can buy). By doing this you can float the worm off the bottom and hopefully right in the fishes' faces. If you just fish a worm on the bottom without doing this they are harder for the fish to see and they can crawl under things and hide. If fishing with live crayfish, try pinching one claw off. This makes them appear more vulnerable and helps them stand out more. To do this

gallery. It was a “save the tuna” poster, meant to raise awareness about the Bluefin tuna, which is on the brink of extinction due to overfishing.

“From Blue to Red” 1 in 10,000 crawfish are blue. It can happen as a result of a mutation in the gene responsible for pigment formation.

Fish farming is a common kind of aquaculture. India offers a huge potential for aquaculture development. The

All I ever eat is tuna. If I do not have the scrumptious fish for lunch, I have it for dinner at least four times a week. There is no end to my unhealthy obsession with Katsuwonus pelamis and Thunnus albacares. In fact, there was a small period in my life when I was pescatarian, and the only fish I ate was tuna. I am now back to being a regular omnivore, eating vegetables and meats. However, I eat more fish than anything else, ignoring the balanced food pyramid that I learned in elementary school
