Er hello ITS A FISH 🐟

$5000 a pound? Really? Are you sure you moved the decimal point right? This is literally incredible.

these comments are ridiculous. the reason it's so expensive, is because of restrictions put in place to help comply with limit reference points. they can't pull juveniles like they used to. the population is growing. you people are stupid.

There should be NO celebrating the murder of ANY creature, let alone one that is on the brink of extinction. How sickening. ALL CREATURES HAVE WORTH AMD DESERVE TO THRIVE.

shameless Jap.

And the Japanese is going to start commercial whaling again, despite opposition from international community.

What did they run out of whales to hunt? WTFJapan

How wonderful. An endangered species but let's all celebrate

Very very sad. Killing animals (any living creatures) is unforgivable.

Ass wipes and their bazarro Customers permeate Japan.

This is so sad -save blue tuna

that's one heck of a tuna

Yes,they must destroy every living thing that's left.

Yea but think of the radioactivity that fish is putting out!

It is illogical to hunt a species to extinction!
