Scientists know that white sharks are important ocean predators, but many aspects of their lives are still a mystery. For example, each winter, large white sharks leave the California coast and swim halfway to Hawaii, congregating in an area known as the "White Shark Café." The males then repeatedly dive hundreds of feet below the surface. Researchers speculate that the sharks might be chasing prey or mating.
