Fishy Business

"As tuna farming advances, but strict fishing regulations might be the only hope for the sushi fish" quoted scienceline.org. The bluefin Tuna is used for making sushi or rather sashimi and due to the overwhelming demand, it has become overfished. Scientists are now studying on how to breed these creatures in captivity, so as to prevent them from extinction. Some people may think that it is a good idea ,especially for sushi lovers. However some experts prefer not. they believe that the fish's habit are too idiosyncratic(abnormal) for commercial fish farming and that the breeding efforts are deistracting from the pressurizing problem of overfishing, said the website. According to a fish breeder, breeding blue-fin tuna from roe( the fully ripe internal ovaries or egg masses of fish and certain marine animals, such as shrimp, scallop and sea urchins)success rate range from 5% to 10% which relatively lower than the breeding way from fry which ranges from 30% to 40%. As a student blogger, I wish to raise public awareness of the cruelty of whaling in Japan. I feel that whaling is awful. Hundreds of species are killed every year and shouldn't we think about what rights we have to do so? Why should we eat the pathetic fishes when we have vegetables that make us healthy and strong and other tender meat? Another reason for slauthering these marine creatures is for scientific reasearh. I do not think that it is neccessary and really would want to stop this fishing. Being Humans does not allow us to pose a cruelty to our fellow animals. Eat less or no tuna at all. I wish this speech can raise public awreness and do a part, however small, to stop this cruelty. Feel free to leave comments on the tagboard
