NANTUCKET, Mass. — Sharks have officially made their way back up the Atlantic coast to New England for the summer season.

Video recently taken off Nantucket showed a great white shark devouring a seal near the beach in the area of Great Point Light.

In a tweet, the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy acknowledged the video, writing, “As the summer season approaches, remember to report your white shark sightings to the app Sharktivity!”

A new partnership between the Conservancy and the New England Aquarium encourages people to report white shark sightings off Cape Cod through the Sharktivity app.
