A massive great white shark has been recorded swimming off the New Jersey shore.
The shark is named Ironbound, after the West Ironbound Island near Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, where it was first spotted. The creature is 12 feet, 4 inches long and weighs an estimated 998 pounds, according to OCEARCH, a nonprofit marine research group that provides open-source data about shark migration.
Ironbound was first tagged on October 3, 2019, in the waters around Nova Scotia. As part of its data collection process, OCEARCH captures and fits sharks with an electronic tracker that pings whenever they break the ocean surface.
