Great white shark spotted off St. Andrews, New Brunswick

Some lucky passengers aboard a Quoddy Link Marine whale-watching vessel were treated to a somewhat rare sighting of an adult white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) after heading out of St. Andrews harbor in New Brunswick, Canada. YouTube user Dave Hannett caught some brief footage of the shark, as seen in the video above. According to the video information, the shark was spotted about a mile out from the harbor.

White sharks are known to inhabit the Atlantic waters of coastal Canadian provinces, but sightings are fairly rare.
