Great White Attacks Monterey Bay Aquarium!

A great white shark is captured and displayed at the Monterey Bay Aquarium! In an article in The Californian, Richard Green writes, "the Monterey Bay Aquarium remains the only institution in the world to exhibit a white shark for more than 16 days." But, more importantly Green states that, "each (great white shark) has been successfully returned to the wild." Now, that is an accomplishment! The great white shark in the aquarium is a 5-foot 3-inch female weighing in at 79.8 pounds. She was caught off the coast of Malibu on August 12. The great white was then brought to the aquarium in a 3,000-gallon mobile life-support vehicle. She is only the fifth great white shark that has been on exhibit since 2004, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium is taking great care of her.
