Different species and parts of the tuna. Similar to how wagyu beef is more expensive than regular beef. And Beef tenderloin is a lot more expensive than hamburger. Different parts of an animal can cost different amounts, and that goes into the price of the overall animal. The tuna in a can is most likely the scraps and/or cheaper cuts of a tuna after all the “good parts” have been removed and processed. Just like how a lot of hamburger is just the leftover meat after the good steaks and roasts have been removed
