The other day I was in environmental studies and i wasn't engaging myself at all (duh) and the prof began discussing something called "the big tuna experiment".


Basically it was this; Biomagnification is a word tossed around with this class a lot. Essentially it means the the older and bigger a species is, the more contaminants it will obtain over time from consistently eating the smaller fish that live shortly and contain small amounts of contaminants.

-in this case, tuna, as compared to albacore.


Now the experiment basically created a hypothesis saying that albacore (which is more expensive and more delicious) contains more mercury than tuna because of the biomagnification theory. They ended up being right.


But the only thing I could think about was Andy Bernard from The Office every time he said "big tuna".

and you thought it was going to be something phallic.... perv.
