Atlantic Bluefin Tuna migrate across all oceans and are the largest tunas that can live up to 40 years. Out of the three species of Bluefin—Atlantic, Pacific, and Southern—the Atlantic is endangered because of massive overfishing. Most catches of this species are taken from the Mediterranean Sea, which is the most important Bluefin tuna fishery in the world according to the IUCN Red List. This particular tuna is a highly sought-after delicacy for sushi and sashimi in Asia—a single fish was recently sold for over $1.75 million.
