After first "pinging" at 10:51 a.m. Wednesday, Breton pinged on Thursday at 12:37 p.m., 3:55 p.m., 5:30 p.m., and 6:49 p.m., according to data.
According to the tracker, Breton has traveled nearly 139 miles in the last 72 hours.
He was the first shark tagged during OCEARCH's Expedition Nova Scotia 2020 and is named after Cape Breton, where researchers found him, according to his biography. Over the last four and a half years, he has traveled more than 41,000 miles.
Breton is the fifth shark OSEARCH has tagged at Scatarie Island in two years of working in the area, showing the white sharks may have predictable access, according to OSEARCH.
OSEARCH did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
