Abstract
A specimen of the white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, brought into Leonardville, Deer Island, N.B., on August 13, 1971, contained three harbour porpoises, Phocoena phocoena, in variable states of digestion. This record on predation is discussed in conjunction with literature reports of a similar nature and one other previously unpublished observation.Keywords
