Big ocean(海洋)fish have almost disappeared from the world since the start of business fishing in the 1950’s.The scientists found that the number of large fish has dropped by 90 percent in the past fifty years.The study took ten years.The researchers collected records from fishing business and governments around the world.The magazine Nature published the findings.
