Radioactive Bluefin Tuna Crossed the Pacific to Us

Article Summary   by:sg123     Original Author: ALICIA CHANG

This is an interesting article about Bluefin Tuna that made its way from Japan and is still radioactive. The tuna was contaminated by the nuclear fallout Japan had after the March, 2011 Tsunami.

The Bluefin Tuna that has come from Japan is not contaminated with so much radioactivity that it is unsafe to eat. The researchers tested the tuna and ensure it is safe to eat.

The Bluefin Tuna can grow to be ten feet and weigh over one thousand pounds. A group, of tuna coming from Japan, still to contain radioactivity is a surprise to researchers. The Bluefin Tuna survives off squid and other small sea creatures.

I found this article to be informative. I do not eat tuna, but know others that do. I was interested in this article because I know people that eat tuna and I was quite concerned for their safety. This article can be interesting to you if you are one enjoys reading about science related issues.

If you get the chance to read this article, you will find that it is an informational article that is useful to read. You might eat Bluefin Tuna and have concerns about the radioactivity in this batch of tuna. I hope you take a lot away from this article just like I did.
