bluefin tuna
Bluefin tuna is a species of fish that belongs to the mackerel family and is one of the largest and most expensive types of tuna. It is distinguished by its metallic blue topside and the silver-white color on its lower side. Bluefin tuna are saltwater fish known for their high speed, endurance, and warm-blooded nature. They are found in great numbers in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Southern oceans. They are widely used in professional sushi and sashimi dishes due to the rich flavor of their meat, leading to increased demand and overfishing.
