Zebra mussels have few natural predators due to their hard shells, but some animals do consume them. Common predators include certain species of fish, such as drum and catfish, as well as birds like ducks and some diving birds. Additionally, the invasive species of the quagga mussel, which is closely related, can also prey on zebra mussels. However, their impact on zebra mussel populations remains limited.
