CAPE COD, MASS. (WPRI) – Scientists who were tracking several Great White sharks off the coast of Cape Cod this summer say they have headed south for the winter.

Transmitters that were placed on two adult female sharks have sent back signals from waters off northern Florida and Georgia.

Scientists hope to use the information to better understand the travel patterns of the sharks.
