Sep 27, 2009 Tuna Crisis
More than two thousand years ago Aristotle followed the movements of the noble blue fin tuna. Today the powerful fish still has the power to mesmerize us.
But amazement is turning to alarm as their numbers decline dramatically in the world's oceans. Some scientists say they're on the edge of extinction and want a boycott on fishing.
Still some fishermen in Prince Edward Island believe there are plenty of blue fin tuna in the Island waters. They blame regulators and European fishermen for the mismanagement of the stock.
Welcome to Land and Sea
For more than thirty years Land and Sea has brought you stories from people who live off the land and the sea. We cover issues that affect people in rural communities which ultimately affect those in cities as well.
We bring you stories from those who celebrate life living close to nature, who promote and protect their culture and traditional ways of doing things. There are stories of success and sometime failures that portray the unique way Atlantic Canadians deal with the challenges and pleasures of living on the east coast.
Join us Sundays at 12 noon on CBC Television.
