CHARLOTTETOWN, Prince Edward Island, Oct. 5 (UPI) -- A proposal to list bluefin tuna as an endangered species puzzles some Canadian fishermen who say they see signs of abundance in the start of the fishing season.
They landed 144 tuna in the first eight hours of fishing Monday off Prince Edward Island and officials expect the remainder of the quota to be caught Tuesday, meaning Island fishermen will catch their quota in just two days, Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reported.
