End of the Line

Big Question: Why should we humans be concerned about overfishing?

Cod, haddock, tuna, salmon, and prawns are the "Big Five" fish that we eat all the time.

One reason for not eating shark or deep  water fish is because they're slow growing which means that it takes a quite some time to breed, and can also be exposed to over exploitation. 

Some fish that we can eat are anchovy, cockle, arctic char, and pangasius. Occasional fishes to fish are flounder, grey mullet, white marlin, and plaice. The fishes to avoid are salmon, scampi, sea bass and caviar
