This one was for real. State shark specialists have determined that a big fish that washed up on a beach in Nantucket Monday was a 6 1/2-foot great white shark.

It is a rare find for the scientists, who have not seen a great white carcass wash up on a Massachusetts beach in at least two decades, said Lisa Capone, a spokeswoman for the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs.

"It's an opportunity to try to learn something," she said.

The discovery of the young female shark's carcass at a beach off Sheep Pond Road follows an unconfirmed sighting by lifeguards last week that led to the closing of South Beach on Martha's Vineyard.

Didn't this happen last year?

That was the first thing I thought of, too.

Even at just 6 1/2 feet I still wouldn't want to go swimming with it! :chased:

Just a fierce death machine whether 61/2 feet or 20 feet!
