Take a Long Line

Summary The world is eating a once mighty, abundant wild fish into oblivion. And with million dollar price tags on exemplary specimens it's no wonder international fishing fleets are scouring the Pacific in search of Bluefin tuna and their relatives the Yellowfin and Bigeye. Many of those vessels will fish where they're not supposed to and take catches they're not entitled to. That's made the tiny island nation of Palau hopping mad. But what can it do about one of the world's more pressing environmental and sustainability questions? Can one of the world's littlest countries help save the beleaguered tuna of the Pacific?
