The more than 3,400-pound female great white shark named Mary Lee was spotted off the coast of Long Island Tuesday, surfacing near Fire Island after her tracker pinged near Jones Beach on her way toward Robert Moses State Park, according to a nonprofit group following her movements.
OCEARCH tweeted that the 3,456-pound,16-foot-long Internet sensation hit the Jones Beach area around 9:30 a.m.; the shark later pinged elsewhere off Long Island's south shores.
The group has tracked Mary Lee's movements since she was first tagged off Cape Cod in September 2012; since then, she has traveled nearly 20,000 miles.
Less than a week ago, the shark made her way up the Jersey Shore. She "tweets" each time her tracker pings in a new spot, as well sending cheeky responses to her more than 35,000 loyal followers.
In the last month and a half, she has also pinged near North and South Carolina and paid a visit to Ocean City, Maryland. She was last near Long Island in January 2013, when she pinged off the coast near Westhampton Beach, according to the Babylon Village Patch.
While experts don't know what exactly is keeping Mary Lee on the East Coast, they believe it may be related to food.
