Krill, found in all of Earth's oceans, are estimated to have the largest biomass of any animal on earth, amounting to something between half and three quarters of a billion tonnes. Commercial fishing for human consumption and use amounts to a couple hundred thousand tonnes annually. They live off plankton and support a large food chain, sometimes swarming in concentrations of around 50,000 individuals per cubic meter.
