Another tweeting shark turns up in Mary Lee's territory
Mary Lee was here first, so at least say trackers of shark travel around the globe.
So, could there be a turf war?
Mary Lee's return to waters between Cape Charles and Assateague was observed Friday, May 20, just before 8:30 p.m. Her latest arrival was six days after Lydia, whose tracker device pinged May 14 about 1:30 in the afternoon to give an alert on her whereabouts off the coast near Ocean City.
Who's older, wiser, and faster?
Lydia, a 14 foot, 6-inch long female great white shark, was tagged by OC Research in March 2013. She gets around, having traveled more than 35,000 miles.

Mary Lee, also a great white, is about 2 feet longer and was tagged earlier, on Sept. 17, 2012.
She moves about 19 miles per 24-hour day. She also gets around, but not as much as Lydia. Mary Lee, who last pinged in the region on Tuesday, April 12, off the Virginia coast, has 34,175 miles under her belly.
