A tuna fish is a big, strong fish that comes in different sizes, but some can be as long as you are tall! They have a streamlined body that's perfect for swimming really fast. Tuna fish are known for their dark blue backs and silvery sides, which help them blend in with the ocean.

Tuna fish live in the ocean all around the world. They like warm waters, so you can find them in places like the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. They travel really far, sometimes even across entire oceans!

Tuna fish are super fast swimmers. They can swim up to 40 miles per hour (that's faster than most cars!). They're like the race cars of the ocean.

Tuna fish are strong predators. They eat smaller fish, like sardines and mackerel, and sometimes even squid and crustaceans. They use their speed to catch their food.

Tuna fish are important because they're a food source for many people. They're packed with protein and healthy fats, which help us grow strong and smart. But we need to be careful not to catch too many, so there are enough tuna fish left for the ocean.

Did you know that tuna fish never stop swimming? Even when they sleep, they keep moving slowly through the water. That's because they need to keep water flowing over their gills to breathe. Well, let's learn how to draw a tuna jumping out of the water!
