Bigeye tuna — size comparison — facts and sources
The bigeye tuna travels between ocean regions, hunting fish, crustaceans and squid. It can feed deeper than many other tunas. It gathers around seamounts and near floating objects.
Young and smaller adults also school near the surface. Its larger eyes distinguish it from the similar yellowfin tuna and help identify the two species.
