Japan admits killing more tuna than allowed
TOKYO (AFP)— Japan has netted more of a protected type of tuna than allowed, prompting the world’s largest tuna-consuming nation to tighten controls on its fishing industry…as much as 99 percent of the world catch circulated in Japan, farm ministry official Shingo Kurohagi said. An investigation found that Japan has already exceeded its limit by 1,500 tons in the fiscal year that ends in March…
…Australia and Japan are often at loggerheads on fishery issues. Australia helped lead opposition to Japanese whalers…Japan has also said it has suspicions about Australia as the amount of Southern Bluefin Tuna it exports to Japan allegedly exceeds what it catches. “The fish farmed by Australia become so big to the extent that is impossible biologically, if it is keeping its own limit of tuna catches,” Kurohagi said….more….
Damn, I better eat some grilled tuna for lunch before the only bluefin tuna that’s left is on my 3Yen.com mousepad.
When it comes to fishing, I think the Bass is the best tasting. I’m not a big fan of eating frozen food from far aways places. If I catch it, I’ll eat it anyways! Fishing is a fiddly sport but worth every second of it!
Twenty years late, 85% too little.
