Atlantic Bluefin Tuna
The Atlantic Bluefin Tuna is a large fish species found in the western and eastern Atlantic Ocean. Known for its streamlined body and powerful swimming abilities, it can reach lengths of up to 10 feet and weigh over 1,000 pounds. This species is highly migratory, traveling long distances between feeding and spawning grounds.
Atlantic Bluefin Tuna are carnivorous, primarily feeding on smaller fish like herring and mackerel. They are also known for their high market value, making them a target for commercial fishing. Due to overfishing, their populations have declined, leading to conservation efforts to protect this iconic species.
