According to the Marine Stewardship Council, almost all the tuna we eat is caught from the wild. This includes skipjack tuna, which is the most abundant and commonly consumed tuna species globally, making it a wild-caught product rather than a farmed one.

According to the FAO, worldwide production of the flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) was almost evenly split between wild-caught fisheries and aquaculture in 2012, with approximately 130,000 tonnes caught and 142,000 tonnes farmed. Therefore, it is important to know that mullet fish can be either farmed or wild-caught, depending on the region and market.
