Your should leave it up for a little longer with both aticles since one is saying Great white and the other claiming Mako.
It looks like a White to me!

The two species are very similar ... but I think the one in the article is a mako ... compare the two descriptions here ...

You are right! I thought it was a little blue but figured it was just the photo.

Hey man I thought the other story was bad because it says its a big Mako when I personally thinks its a GW. Sorry I came across the wrong way, you'll forgive me right?
NWGratefulDiver:
It's really hard to tell from these pictures. The teeth look too slender to be a Great White so based on that I'd guess it was a Mako. You could tell for sure if you could touch the teeth. GW teeth are serrated along the edges and Mako's aren't.
The really interesting question is what's the real story behind this picture...

Well if you want to see REAL great white sharks, check out the images I just posted from my trip to Guadalupe Island. They're on my web site (link below) under still images/marine fish.

Hey! We saw that same shark on our last dive in the local lake. It's true.........
I think extinction... helped along by the true apex predator... is the answer to this GWS infestation.
