Posted in: Japan seeks to boost catch limits of prized bluefin tuna See in context

It is well known that Japan cheats on its quota and understates its catch. So they are taking much more tuna than they claim to be. Accordingly, the real tuna catch is much greater than claimed and already severely damaging the recovery of existing stocks. And they are not satisfied with already raping the world's tuna stocks. Now they want to do it legally. I think the idea of a complete moratorium on taking wild tuna for some years would be a great idea. Remember that there has been a technological breakthrough and large tuna can now be bred in captivity. If wild tuna were protected for say 10 years, farmed tuna could replace them instead for that time.
