OUTER BANKS, N.C.- A massive great white shark weighing more than 2,100 pounds is making its way to the coast of North Carolina, according to researchers who are tracking it.
Researchers with great white shark research organization OCEARCH wrote in a Facebook post that the 15-foot, 2,137-pound female shark, named Luna, “pinged” last week off the coast of the Carolinas.
Luna was over the Charleston Bump, “a deepwater bottom feature 80 to 100 miles southeast of Charleston, South Carolina,” according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. She was headed toward the Outer Banks.
