A 14-foot, 1,653-pound great white shark named “Contender” just popped up near North Carolina’s Pamlico Sound after weeks off the radar! This giant is the biggest male great white ever tracked in the Atlantic and is basically the ocean’s ultimate heavyweight. Scientists think he disappeared to feast and fuel up for a 1,000-mile journey north. Imagine swimming with THAT guy lurking nearby! Would you still hit the beach? #GreatWhiteShark #SharkTracking #NorthCarolina #Science
