What gives with this? Akin to high fence hunting preserves in my best estimation. Check out the wall paper on this site - big off-shore boat inside a pen. Can this be legit?

I think I heard my grandpa moan from his grave....

(Also provided: a club and, by special request, several mako sharks to add to the challenge and the authenticity of this very special challenge.)


LMAO!

If I got any madder I would have blown an artery. Then read the disclaimer and realized it was a joke. It was funny but.....the concept is horrifieng and someone will probably attempt something like it.

Well, considering that bluefin tuna are corralled and fattened in pens for commercial sale, this April Fools joke is not too far off the mark.

Yes, I was insanely furious till I hit the pop-up window saying it was a gag.
