    High resolution biologging of breaching by the world’s second largest shark species

    In the present study, we used accelerometer enabled animal-borne biologging tags (recording temperature, pressure and three-axis accelerometry) to describe in high temporal resolution the variability and repeatability of 67 breaches made by three sharks over 41 cumulative days (Fig. 1; shark 5 m length (n = 1) 678 kg estimated mass; and sharks 6 m length (n = 2) 160 kg estimated mass). Approximately half (n = 28) of all breaches were single breaches, but we also recorded 13 double breaches, three triple breaches and one shark that breached four times in 47 s (Fig. 2A-D). Consecutive breaches were 18 s apart (mean value ± 6 s.d, range 12–47 s); i.e. sharks ascend from depth to the surface, propel themselves out of the water and swim to depth before commencing the subsequent ascent. Breaching frequency varied among individuals. Shark 1 breached 0.4 ± 0.9 times per day (mean ± 1 s.d.; range 0–2, n = 2 breaches), shark 3 breached 0.9 per day (± 0.9 s.d, range 0–2, n = 5) and shark 2 breached 1.9 times per day (± 1.8 s.d, range 0–6, N = 60) over 4.8, 4.9 and 31.8 tracking days respectively), during both day and night (peak hour of breaching 04:00 am). Multiple breaches by the same sharks have never been empirically demonstrated before, and breaching has not been described to take place at night.

    Basking shark breaching. Breaching recorded by a towed camera tag deployed in 2018. These data are from a shark that was not instrumented with an accelerometer, they are included to aid visualisation of the breaching process from a point-of-view perspective. For sharks instrumented with accelerometers in 2017, tags where attached flush to the surface of the animal at the base of the dorsal fin. (A) Basking shark breaching (photo: Youen Jacob). The timing and depth associated with each image (C–H) are identified on the breaching depth profile (B). (C,D) the shark starts to ascend from 72 m depth at 0.94 m of vertical gain per second, reaching the surface (in view, E) in 77 s. The shark can be seen completely out of the water (F), before descending (G,H) to depth again.

    At the onset of a breach, sharks switched from slow swimming at 0.3 m.s-1 (mean value ± 0.16 s.d., range 0.17–0.4 m.s-1) at 14.8 m depth (± 5, range 4.6–28 m), to swimming towards the surface (Fig. 1C-E) at an angle of 38.9° (± 13.2, 23.08 to 81.6°), and an average (mean) ascent speed of 2.7 m.s-1 ± 0.5 (1.2–3.8 m.s-1). The peak ascent phase of a breach was observed when the rates of ascent and swimming speed rapidly increased. Breaching metrics were calculated separately for this peak ascent phase, where basking sharks reached the surface in 6 s (± 2.1, 2–17), before breaching near vertically at 76° (± 9, 43.3–87.9°), leaving the water at a mean exit speed of 3.9 m.s-1 ± 0.6. range: 2.2–5.6 m.s-1) (Fig. 1F). To contextualise our observations, an 8 m basking shark breached at 5.1 m.s-1 from 28 m depth10 and oceanic whitetip sharks (Carcharhinus longimanus)11 and great white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias)11,12 ambush-breach their prey at 4 and up to 6.5 m s−1 respectively, but from considerably deeper ( > 100 m11) and are smaller sharks. The peak forces generated by the three tagged basking sharks (which were estimated to weigh up to 1160 kg) were 20 G at the peak of breaching. Breaches could be further characterised by whether sharks exited the water on a particular side of their body. Sharks rolled to their right side in 45 of the 67 breaches (representing 67% of breaches), which may be suggestive of lateralisation (Fig. 2F), the preference for breaching on one side consistently across events13,14. Dynamic body acceleration (VeDBA) (linear mixed effects model; χ2 7.6, p = 0.006) along with tailbeat amplitude (linear mixed effects model; χ2 5.54, p = 0.019) increased with the sharks’ ascent pitch towards the surface. Breaching events were highly repeatable, both among and between sharks, following a similar ascent rate, speed and angle, and from a similar starting depth (Fig. 2E). Breaching was more energetically demanding than routine swimming (breaching VeDBA 7.7 m s−2 ± 4.5, range 0.4–14.7 vs routine swimming VeDBA 0.24 m.s-2 ± 0.04, 0.2–0.27), requiring double the tail beat frequency (breaching 0.49 Hz ± 0.12 vs routine swimming 1.08 Hz ± 0.51) and 15 times the tail beat amplitude (breaching 1.5 ± 1.1 Hz vs. routine swimming 0.1 ± 0.05 Hz). During multiple breaching events, the ascent rate, swimming speed and acceleration were similar for every subsequent breach, although the ascent starting depth was often shallower than for the initial breach. The relatively low field metabolic rate that comes with being ectothermic makes energetically demanding behaviour relatively more expensive for sharks. Therefore, the costs of performing multiple breaches may accumulate more rapidly compared to endothermic whales, such as humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae), which have been recorded breaching 17 times in a 6.5 h deployment15. On average, sharks required an estimated 11.5 kJ (range 3–22 kJ) of mechanical energy (({E}_{m})) to perform a breach, and expended the same ({E}_{m}) for each breach, regardless of whether they breached once or several times (Wilcoxon rank sum test, W = 198.5, p = 0.87; ({E}_{m} single) = 11.5 to 11.8 kJ, ({E}_{m} multi) = 9.98 to 10.3 kJ). Comparatively, the energetic cost of breaching for an 8 m basking shark weighing 2700 kg was estimated six times greater (63 to 72 kJ10). These differences may be attributed to the sharks in the present study being smaller, with the cost of breaching found to increase with increasing body mass15. A breach likely constitutes approximately 0.05 to 0.09% of their daily metabolic cost, which ranged from 12.8 to 21.5 MJ per day16. For comparison, the relative cost of performing a single breach in a 7.8 m (7000 kg) humpback whale represents 0.08 to 0.5% of its daily field metabolic rate15.
    The question remains what the function of breaching is for basking sharks. We are still far from certain what the function of breaching is for many aquatic species, but spinner dolphins, blacktip sharks and humpback whales are known to breach to dislodge epiparasites17. Gore et al.9 noted that epiparasitic lampreys were not dislodged from basking sharks following breaching, suggesting that it may not function for parasite removal, or may require several breaches to dislodge such parasites. Breaching may be used to visually signal between spinner dolphins, and between humpback whales17. Basking sharks breached during the night-time as well as the daytime, and have small eyes, suggesting that breaching is unlikely to be a visual signal. However, breaching may play a role in acoustic communication between distant groups of sharks. Basking sharks can apparently detect weak electric signals produced by zooplankton18, and some elasmobranchs use electro-sensory cues during courtship19, suggesting that breaching could convey readiness to mate. It thus seems possible that the acoustic signal of breaching could be detectable and useful to basking sharks. We have no information in the present study about the presence of other sharks during breaching, although future work using animal-borne acoustic proximity receivers on large numbers of sharks, or aerial drones, could provide insight into the social networks of basking sharks, and whether they breach in proximity to conspecifics. We propose that in the absence of a better explanation and given the predictable and persistent aggregations of basking sharks in Scottish waters, that breaching may be more likely to be related to intra-specific signalling, than anything else yet described.
    We show using repeated direct measurements from three individuals, that the mechanical forces required for basking sharks to breach are considerable, but that basking sharks can breach repeatedly in quick succession. The role of breaching seems most likely to be related to intra-specific signalling and may add to a weight of evidence suggesting that Scottish waters may be an important site for breeding for the species.
