————————————————————————————————————————————-
Pacific bluefin tuna (lat. Thunnus orientalis) is a species of the genus of tuna of the mackerel family. It is the second largest member of its genus after the common tuna, with a maximum recorded length of 3 m and a mass of 450 kg. Pacific bluefin tunas live in subtropical, less often in warm temperate and tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean between 52° N. w. and 50° S. w. and between 112° E. long and 77° west d. These schooling pelagic fish are found both in coastal waters and in the open ocean at depths of up to 550 m. They usually stay in near-surface waters. They make seasonal migrations, moving mainly along the coast. Closely related to common and Australian tuna. The diet consists of small pelagic fish and cephalopods. Reproduction by spawning. Valuable commercial species. Due to overfishing, it has received the conservation status of Near Threatened. Tuna are caught using longlines, purse seines and various hook and line gear. They are a popular sport fishing target. The population is estimated to have declined to 4% of pre-fishing levels in the mid-20th century.
