Giant Great White Shark Off Fort Fisher, Wild Stallion Danger on the Outer Banks

From the April 11, 2022, Raleigh(NC) News & Observer "Massive  great white shark was lurking off North Carolina coast, tracking data show" by Madeline List.

Within the last week, three large tagged great white sharks have pinged off the coast of North Carolina.  The two smaller ones are the 990 pound Ulysses at 12 feet long and Tancook at 715 pounds and 10 feet.

But the largest, Mahone, pinged directly off Fort Fisher, North Carolina, at 8:50 pm Saturday, April 9.  This bog boy is the largest ever tagged, weighing in at 1,701 pounds and 13 feet, 7 inches long.

So, if you're planning on diving on one of the blockade runner wrecks, keep an eye out.

Danger, Danger.  --Old B-ScaredofSharks

And, I just came across a warning to folks out on the state's Outer Banks islands to be aware of wild stallions battling over top horse dominance with mares.  You could get caught in the middle and that would not be a good place to be.

So, there is danger in the water and danger on the land in North Carolina right now.
