A great white shark from Canada is enjoying his early summer cruising up and down the Carolinas, and was last spotted on Monday near the Outer Banks, researchers said.
following the movements of Ironbound, a great white shark that was captured, tagged and released near West Ironbound Island, Nova Scotia.The great white has been fitted with a tracking device that pings when he emerges to the water's surface. He's been traced as far south as the Straits of Florida and as far west as the Gulf of Mexico.
The great white is slightly ahead of schedule in his quest to get back to Nova Scotia, where he'll spend warm weather months feeding on seals to bulk up for the winter. "They hit that cold, cold water that's trapped against the beach and they're like, 'Oh man, it's too early,'" explorer and OCEARCH founder Chris Fischer told NBC News on Tuesday.
