A huge 11ft great white shark has been discovered with a massive wound that researchers believe is caused by a gigantic predator.
Ocearch, a non-profit research and conservation tracker, tracked the shark named Maple about 43 miles off the coast of St. George's island on Monday (March 6), per CBS News.
Maple is named after the emblem on the Canadian flag and was last spotted in the Gulf of Mexico last year before traveling along the East coast.
The organization first tagged her two years ago and has continued to observe her along with dozens of other predators they have tagged.

They said that the attack left her scarred.
As noted on YouTube, Ocearch wrote: "This interaction was possibly an example of dominance behavior. It is not uncommon for sharks to show their dominance over a smaller animal of their species by delivering a significant but non-fatal bite."
According to The Mirror, the organization has also been following another great white shark named Tancook, who was spotted off the coast of Jacksonville on Tuesday (March 10).
The conservation group stated that the huge 715lb male was being monitored as he made his way toward the Atlantic.
The shark sighting comes after a 12-foot great white shark was seen in March last year off the coast of Naples in the Florida Keys, per the publication.
Brent Winner, a scientist for the FWC, told CBS News it's critical that people going to the beach remain alert and understand the dangers of entering the water during this time of year.
"It's very important for people who visit Florida waters to be aware of their surroundings, understand the relative risks, and be educated on various shark issues such as behavior, biology, and fisheries," he said.
This story also comes after officials believed they have located the remains of a man who went missing days ago inside the body of a shark.
As reported by the Associated Press, as well as local Argentinian outlet El País, Diego Barría was last seen on February 18 riding his quad bike on a beach in the Chubut province moments before he was declared missing.
Police officials were unable to find the 32-year-old though they did come across his bike wrecked near Rocas Coloradas just two days later.
He wasn't discovered until two local fishermen informed the coast guard that they had caught three sharks early on Sunday morning, one of which had clear traces of human remains within the body after it was cut open.
Daniela Millatruz, the law enforcement officer who was in charge of the search for Barría, said that "when [the fishermen] were cleaning [the sharks] they found human remains in one of them".
When the evidence was presented to family members, they immediately recognized the father-of-three "due to a tattoo that appeared in one of those remains," she added.
As the publication noted, detectives are continuing to investigate what exactly happened to Barría, although it is presumed that there was an accident involved.
