Tuna sleeps. Although they are aquatic animals, they also need to sleep. It's just that tuna don't have eyelids and don't close their eyes when they sleep, so it's difficult to tell whether they are in a state of rest by whether they close their eyes or not.
In addition, the gills of tuna have been degraded, and they don't need to swim constantly to get oxygen. Even if they keep swimming, they will enter a state of rest for a short time. To judge whether they are sleeping, you can observe their swimming speed. Tuna swims very fast when awake, but it will be slower after sleeping, and its metabolism will be slower.
