Best Answer

When lobsters are young, their predators are different kinds of fish, usually cod, tench, flounder, sculpin, wolffish, ocean pout, monkfish, and dogfish.

Adult lobsters have no real predators except man. When they are moulting (throwing off their too-small shells) they are vulnerable to other sea creatures, but they usually change in a sheltered place.
