The Matawan Maneater, was a great white shark which during the summer of 1916, attacked numerous people, killing several. The attacks occurred along the length of the New Jersey shoreline, prompting a shark hunt. The shark believed to be responsible for the attacks was caught and killed, near Matawan New Jersey where the final shark attacks took place.

On autopsy, human remains were found within the shark, though none of the remains corresponded to the victims of the attacks, leading many to speculate there was more than one shark involved, though the shark attacks ceased after the one shark was caught.

The short answer: Dead.
