Mary Lee is a 16' Great White with a tracking device on her. (I'm sitting in an 18' room right now... she's pretty big!) She seems to like estuary mouths and inlets along the Atlantic coast--apparently looking for seals. If you're curious whether she's visited you, check [url="http://sharks-ocearch.verite.com/"]this site[/url], and select Mary Lee and a timreframe (Activity) like Past Year... and you can see where she is now (off Virginia Beach). She's also been along Cape Cod...

You can left-double-click to zoom in, and right to zoom out. Sometimes it's hard to see the scroll bars on both sides of the page.

We are never really alone...

I spent a week in Orleans, MA on Cape Cod in September, 2012, and Nauset Beach and the rest of the National Seashore was closed to swimming due to a shark sighting.

The map showing Mary Lee's travels from where she was tagged in Wellfleet, MA then down to FL, GA, SC, and NC since then is really interesting. Will she find the Chesapeake Bay? Is Newport, VA just too noisy for a nice, respectable predator?

I'm glad I did not meet up with her in the waves at Cape Cod!

Cool site!

Could Maddox be the infamous [url="http://telly.com/GVSNS"]land shark[/url] that terrorized New York City back in 1974?
