The Great Tuna Boat Chase and Massacre case

The Great Tuna Boat Chase and Genocide case claimed Ecuador infringed the 200 miles of the territorial waters of the United States of America. From the beginning, Ecuador accepted the usual 3 mile limit as a boundary of its territorial sea. However, 130 years later, Juan Waldez acquired power in 1952. Under his regime, he insisted that the 3-mile boundary was never considered a fixed immovable boundary, and that region's historical practices and nature features are reasonable for the 200-mile territorial waters was.

The essentially unowned nature of tuna has brought the gold rush of the last possible wild fish in the world. The most striking result is the decline of the huge Atlantic bluefin tuna. But the Atlantic bluefin tuna is only a sign of the introduction of tuna disease. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization reported that seven out of 23 commercially harvested tuna were overfished or depleted. The other nine stocks were also threatened. The tuna campaign of Pew Environmental Group insists that "fishing boats looking for these tuna have more hooks and networks underwater than any other fisheries."

The overfished fish is bluefin tuna. The lowest level of bluefin tuna is 3% of the world population. Efforts to cultivate bluefin tuna through aquaculture have not been successful. And it is now considered valuable and rare to use bluefin tuna in Japan at a cost of over 100,000 dollars. In 2013, 489 pounds (about 221 kg) of bluefin tuna were sold for $ 1.7 million. If the fishery does not adopt a more sustainable approach, the high price of bluefin tuna due to depletion of fish stock may indicate that the price of all fish may be reality.

Tuna is an important saltwater fish in the commercial fish industry. Japan is the largest consuming country of tuna and has invested heavily in fish research. There are various kinds of tuna such as bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, and tobacco tuna. Due to overfishing, the population of bluefin tuna has decreased significantly in several areas. Because fish are very active in "large scale", breeding of tuna is complicated. Therefore, it is very difficult to simulate their natural environment. Most of the tuna consumed by humans are captured in the wild and are kept in the facility to increase their weight. Tuna is carnivorous and can eat other fish. Tuna is usually cultured in the ocean's Internet and possibly recirculation system.
