Improving tuna welfare

The Fish Tales Foundation is pioneering to make tuna fisheries more humane. With our project partners, we are developing the first practical method for humane killing of skipjack tuna in pole-and-line fisheries, alongside other measures to reduce stress and improve overall tuna welfare.
