The Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey, California.
The aquarium brought a young female white shark back to Monterey and placed it in the Outer Bay exhibit on September 14. Long-term exhibit of the small (4-foot-4-inch) female white shark, a "young-of-the-year" (approximately 12 months old) is one key objective of the aquarium's three-year white shark project. http://www.mbayaq.org/cr/whiteshark.asp
