Great White Sharks Return to Cape Cod for the Season

A group of whale watchers spotted a 12-foot great white shark feasting on a juvenile gray seal in the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary off Cape Cod, marking the first great white shark sighting of the season. Officials warn that sharks are back in the area and advise visitors to be "shark smart" when venturing out into open waters. The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy recommends staying close to shore, swimming in groups, avoiding marine life, and paying attention to flags or signs.
