Abstract

The article examines commercial tuna fishing and the global tuna fishery. Bluefin tuna may be declared an endangered species, and the expanding demand for tuna as a food has led to overfishing of other species of tuna. Efforts by fishermen and tuna cannery companies to insure compliance with catch limits for tuna are examined.
