LeeBeth is on the move. Scientists put a tracking device on her in December near South Carolina. Her 14-foot-long body swam more than 2,000 miles. LeeBeth went deep into the Gulf of Mexico. She went farther in that direction than any other tracked white shark. Scientists want to learn where white sharks travel. People once hunted them too much. A rule in 1997 made them a protected species. Now their numbers grow. Groups all over the world tag thousands of white sharks.
