'''Tuna''' are several species of ocean dwelling fish in the family Scombridae, mostly in the genus Thunnus. Tunas are fast swimmers, they have been clocked at 70 km/h (45 mph) and include several species that are warm-blooded. Unlike most fish species, which have white flesh, tuna have flesh that is pink to dark red.

Tuna is widely used as raw fish dishes, especially sashimi. This fish is also excellent for [[grilling]]. Tuna is often served [[seared]] or rare.
