There's a New White Shark in Town
For only the third time since 2004, we have a young white shark in the Outer Bay exhibit. He arrived on August 28 2007, and will remain in the million-gallon exhibit as long as he's in good health and hasn't grown too large for us to return safely to the wild.
White Shark Details
- He was caught accidentally in commercial fishing gear.
- He's a young male: just 4-feet, 9-inches long and weighing 67 ½ pounds.
- He was kept in an ocean holding pen off Malibu in Southern California until we observed him feeding and navigating well in the confines of the pen.
