Toro the Bluefin Tuna Asks You to do a Solid for the Ocean

October 15, 2012

An animated bluefin tuna aptly named Toro is asking the public to do a “solid” for the ocean in a new short video. “I am taking a break from the waves to ask if you can take a chill pill on eating my peeps,” the animated tuna says. Watch the video below to see what else Toro has to say.

The language and animation make the short video light-hearted, but the underlying message is quite serious — bluefin tuna are in trouble and populations around the world are being run into the ground in order to meet human demand. 

This short video is part of a One World One Ocean month-long campaign being called Go Fish! To learn more about this video, the campaign and what you can do click HERE.
