Let's learn from Asia, and not overfish the Chesapeake Bay. Watch this video of how Bluefin Tuna is endangered by overfishing.
"Predatory fish are at the top of the ocean food chain. They help keep the balance of marine life in check. Without their eating habits, an overabundance of smaller organisms might affect the entire underwater ecosystem. Some scientists say such a shift could lead to a total collapse of the oceans. Yet so far, those in charge of regulating international fisheries have done little to protect at least one endangered species.
Scientists say this species is on the brink of extinction… and it is all our fault."
