Trek of the Great White Shark

I’ve neglected this blog for awhile now, and I apologize if you’ve been checking it. There’s only so much media somebody can be social for. Let me make it up a little with another episode of Where in the World is Mary Lee? The restless two-ton great white shark is now south of Bermuda in the deep ocean, after last visiting the Lowcountry, cruising up to the summer feeding grounds off New England, wandering off  the edge of the Continental Shelf and apparently liking it out there.

Genie, her not-so-much-smaller-that-it would-matter-to-you fellow great white, last pinged a surfacing signal in January, when she was off the South Carolina coast. She hasn’t been heard from since.

Meanwhile, Ocearch, the group that tagged both sharks, has mounted an expedition off Florida to find a few more. Reporters are along for that 10-day trip and you can follow it on the Ocearch Facebook page. Enjoy.
