Monterey Bay Aquarium's Great White -- RELEASED.

[Mako Mark]

nice to know she is back where she belongs. When I went to the MB Aquarium, I stayed there so long they eventually had to kick me out so they could close. It is a cool place, but captivity is pretty tough on any pelagic species I reckon.

I talked my family into going to the MB aquarium last December. None of had heard they had a white shark, until we were inside. Cool to have seen it. (The term "dumb luck", may correctly apply.)

I agree with the other posters that I don't want to see that particular shark again.

The local San Francsico evening news on TV reported that the implanted transmitter on the shark was reporting its position as of 5/2/2005 at Santa Barbara California. So this is no longer a NorCalif issue. It is now a SoCalif issue.

Norcal sends you our best regards and the opportunity to see her close up in her natural habitat.

P.S. She likes salmon, but people with cameras will work as well.

Yes and she is accustomed to being fed by hand by divers. Therefore to her:

divers = food.
