BAD BEHAVIOR: The U.S. is thumbing its nose at international agreements to protect rapidly declining bigeye tuna populations by telling its own fishermen to continue fishing beyond the allowed cap. http://ejus.tc/1tBTbEH
Bigeye tuna are hi...ghly valued for sushi, but overfishing has caused the population to plunge to their lowest historic level. International agreements were put in place to protect the species from extinction, but the National Marine Fisheries Service has just issued regulations allowing longline fishermen off Hawai`i to exceed their caps. Longline fishing has also been implicated in untold numbers of whale, dolphin, and sea turtle deaths.
