A Bluefin Tuna weighing 'nearly four times as much as the average Japanese man' has been sold for a record price of 16.28 million yen ($175,000, £109,000). Some conservationists believe the global stocks of this popular bread of Tuna are depleting and are campaigning for fishing quotas to be introduced to save them from extinction.
