Generally speaking, the polar bear is an apex predator. It has only man to fear. But the Orca, or killer whale, has been know to kill and eat the bear if it catches it swimming in open water. The Orca, too, is an apex predator, and it will kill and eat deer, elk or moose swimming between islands or land masses if it has the opportunity. These instances are rare, but are a recorded part of wildlife studies.
larger bears
However, humans are now also their predators, due to global warming, and the limited supply of food (humans killing the seals)
There is no evidence that the theory of global warming has had anything to do with polar bear food supply, or even if it exists. Human hunters are the bear's main predator it is true. Orcas may take one, but this is a rare event.
I assume the question is: what are the predators of polar bears?
The only animal that hunts polar bears is man. Polar bears are also known to kill other polar bears occasionally.
no a polar bear does not have predators because it defends itself and it's baby's.
Polar bears have no predators, they are at the top of their food chain. Animals have the ability to attack them but probally not to kill. There are very few animals where the polar bears live and the polar bear is the biggest.
The only natural predators for Polar Bears are humans.
HUMANS
Polar Bears are the apex predator where they live, so no they have no predators over them. However, mankind is basically the apex predator on the planet and we hunt or carelessly destroy environments where other animals, including predators and apex predators live the Polar Bear live, so we are their main predatory threat at the moment.
The polar bear is an "Apex Predator" meaning there are no natural predators higher on the food chain.
The male bear will eat cubs if given the opertunity, ( and I suspect females will eat another bears cubs if given the chance)
Man is generally thought not to be a Natural Predator.
Polar bears don't have any predators, but they often die from being hunted by humans, or they die of hunger. Each year, polar bears have less and less seals and walruses to eat, because those animals die too.
Humans.
There are no natural predators of the polar bear. Only man.
i really dony know so that is why i came here to get the answer because my whole class is trying to look ip somthing on the computer
There aren't any. Polar bears are on the top of the food chain.
Well, if you push it you could consider humans to be the polar bears predators, as humans do hunt polar bears to some extent.
theres actually 100 million predators wanting to eat polar bear and the polar bear has the same amount of prey :)
Killer whales don't have any natural predators. The only animal that can match up to a Killer Whale is a Great White Shark by they rarely clash. The only common threat to them is humans because of human activities such as hunting and captured for captivity.
Predators for grown bears are usually man. Bears are food chain killers, they r on top of food chain exept 4 man
Sharks, orcas, humans, and other seagulls.
Orcas are known to occasionally kill and eat swimming polar bears.
whale
Its the complete opposite, orcas have no natural predators :)
Among the natural predators of seals in the Southern Ocean that surrounds the Antarctic continent are Orca whales.
There predators are leopard seals and orcas.
Leopard seals and killer whales are the main natural predators of adult Emperor penguins. On the other hand, chick mortality at many colonies is mainly due to the Southern Giant Petrel.
Orcas(Killer Whales) and Leopard Seals are Fur Seals predators.
On the continent, adult penguins have no natural predators, but chicks are vulnerable to carnivorous birds, such as Skua, that take the chicks to feed their own young. Penguins are sea birds and their natural predators are sea animals, such as seals and whales.
Yes they are.
lepeord seals
Natural predators include Polar Bear, Orca or Killer Whale, sharks, and in some areas Walruses, and humans.
Antarctic fur seals are preyed on by orcas (killer whales) and leopard seals.
pretadors
Leopard seals.
