Doesn’t sound very appetizing, does it? Why would you eat raw slices of a warm-blooded, pack hunting predator that is on the top of the food chain and whose numbers are critically threatened by hunting?
If you are a bluefin tuna sushi or sashimi eater, you are eating a wild population that is overfished and on the verge of collapse before the oil disaster. You are eating wolves of the sea, warm-blooded pack hunters roaming the northern hemisphere before returning to one of two spawning areas- the Gulf of Mexico and the Mediterranean Sea.
The tipping point is now, this year, this month today. Take home message of this diary for those busy this Father’s Day: Stop eating bluefin tuna, and tell restaurants and fish shops to stop buying it for their customers. Call it a moratorium, not a boycott.
