Chicken of the Sea Mermaid Protest in California

Hannah Fraser, acclaimed mermaid performance artist and ocean activist, protests ocean destruction near the headquarters of canned tuna company Chicken of the Sea. The Thai Union-owned canned tuna industry is destroying marine environments and trampling human rights. Canned tuna, one of the last remaining wild foods, is sending many species to the brink of extinction. Countless animals such as sharks, turtles, rays and baby fish of many types are killed every year in the activities of the global tuna industry.
