The Great White shark

After another painful conference call, where we argued back and forth until almost 12.30am, I went to the living room, turned on the TV - yes, it's that bad.  I had to de-stress. 

There was this program on about scientists who tagged Great White sharks and wondering why they swim 6 months to get out to the middle of nowhere (off US).  The purpose was to find a Great White in that area, check its stomach contents to see what it eats.

I'm reminded how huge a Great White is... averaging lengths of 6m ; weighing 2000-ish kg.  See the picture from the National Geographic site : HUGE!
