Researchers tag dozens of tuna off Türkiye's southwestern coast to collect data
ANTALYA, TÜRKİYE - JUNE 10: Researchers have tagged 32 bluefin tuna off the coast of Alanya district in Türkiye's southwestern Antalya province with satellite-connected devices to monitor their migration route and breeding and feeding areas.
Experts from the Mediterranean Fisheries Research, Production and Training Institute, the General Directorate of Agricultural Research and Policies and the General Directorate of Fisheries and Aquaculture of Türkiye's Agriculture and Forestry Ministry and from Türkiye's Cukurova University and Stanford University in the US launched a study in the Gulf of Antalya as part of the Atlantic-Wide Research Program for Bluefin Tuna of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT).
The team sailed from Alanya with Turkish-flagged ships the previous day and placed the devices on 32 tuna they caught.
The moments of attaching the devices to the fish and releasing them into the sea were captured by an Anadolu team.(Footage by Mert Canturk - Bekir Bektas/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
