tuna stocks
Tuna stocks refer to the populations of tuna fish living in oceans that scientists monitor to ensure their numbers stay sustainable. Overfishing—catching too many fish faster than they can reproduce—can reduce tuna populations, threatening their survival and impacting ecosystems. Effective management involves setting catch limits, protecting breeding areas, and promoting responsible fishing practices. Maintaining healthy tuna stocks ensures that these important fish continue to thrive, support fishing industries, and sustain ocean health.
