Disgusting!!!

極端な金額で、其に見合う価値が有るのか?新年のご祝儀、見たいなものだな。

Elle en pense quoi Audrey pulvar ?

Not good. Tuna are being raped toward extinction.

What’s the meaning, just to full the stomach? Crazy😤😤

Poor baby

Maybe you could mention that this creature is endangered!

This is why Japan pulled out of the International Whaling Commission. There’s big money to be made in seafood, which means they’ll circumnavigate the globe until there’s nothing left in the ocean.

NBC you'd better tweet details about this.

Dudes on wicked tuna are getting screwed. $15-$20 lb.

Keep your Tuna and give me back the 3MM. I eat Chicken.
