Shocking tuna fishing footage

Additional Info

Disturbing new footage has just been revealed, documenting the destruction caused by common tuna fishing practices.

The footage was captured by a whistleblower within the tuna industry. It is not for the fainthearted as it contains graphic killings of dolphins, manta rays and marlin – common victims of industrial tuna fishing techniques.

WARNING: Video contains disturbing images

This footage gruesomely documents how the majority of the world’s tuna is caught – with purse seine nets and FADs (fish aggregating devices).
