Bluefin Tuna
1. The Gulf of Mexico is one of only two bluefin nurseries worldwide
2. Unlike most tunas, bluefin slow growing and late maturing
3. Critically endangered globally; popular to eat for humans, so severely overfished
4. Presently okay in Gulf, but it took 3 years for the Exxon oil disaster in Alaska to destroy the herring stock; it still hasn’t recovered
