dc.descriptionFor the first time, a mackerel tuna—also known as “kawakawa” and “tulingan” in the Philippines, long considered nearly impossible to breed—has reproduced naturally in captive conditions at a research center in the Philippines. The tuna (Euthynnus affinis) was spawned at the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Aquaculture Department (Seafdec/AQD) in Tigbauan, Iloilo, without the use of hormone injections, said the Center’s news release. The first spawning event under fully captive conditions was recorded in July 2025, with repeated spawning observed through September.en
