Yes there is Freediver. Particularly for your type, who like to slaughter everything that moves.

Fish are now heavily polluted with all sorts of contaminants. The bigger the fish, the larger the risk for humans who feast on these creatures.

A few of the dangerous pollutants include heavy metals, PCB's and dioxins. Many of these are known or probable carcinogens.

Others are endocrine disruptors with detrimental hormonal effects, decreasing testosterone levels and altered sex ratios in embryos (increasing feminine traits in males), following prenatal exposure to dioxins.

Ever seen the graphics of the deformed children in Vietnam, Freediver? A result of dioxins (agent orange), where children, some 42 years after the war are presenting with hideous physical deformities. Yum, fish and our waterways are full of this contaminant which likes to bioaccumulate!

Scandanavian health officials have warned for years against pregnant women or children under 8, eating any fish in those waters.

Of course, small fish have fewer pollutants due to their diminished feeding quantities. However, the herring in Esperance WA were dangerously contaminated after the industrial lead spill recently and the health department issued a media warning not to fish in those waters.

The Japanese, have one of the highest rates of stomach cancer in the world.

Ah yes, Karma........imparting her wisdom to those who like to rape, pillage and poison with gusto!
