A dead great white shark washed ashore Sunday morning on a California beach.

The adult male shark was found around 7 a.m. with multiple cuts on its face but nothing that appeared life-threatening, officials told KSBW.

The carcass was removed from the beach and a necropsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.
