Electronic tags have revealed that they can dive to great depths (over 6000 feet) and migrate vast distancesfrom frigid subpolar seas to warm tropical watersfor spawning. Prized for their rich taste and unique texture, bluefin tunas are also a worldwide commodity of great value. However, over the past few decades, overfishing throughout their range has led to significant population reductions.   In The Future of Bluefin Tunas, Barbara A. Block brings together renowned bluefin experts from 15 different countries to share the latest information on the science, fisheries policy, and management decisions related to each of the three species within the Thunnus groupAtlantic, Pacific, and Southern.
