TL;DR Summary

Two male great white sharks have been observed swimming together for over 4,000 miles from the southeast U.S. to Canada, which is unusual as great white sharks are typically solitary creatures. The sharks, nicknamed Simon and Jekyll, were tagged with tracking devices by researchers and have been following a similar path along the coast. Scientists are puzzled by this behavior and are investigating whether the sharks might be related. This discovery adds to the growing evidence that white sharks may exhibit social behavior and interact with each other.
