No, this is a fallacy. Although dolphins and sharks do not seek each other to attack, they appear to have a mutual respect. Normally, a shark will only attack a lone dolphin, a sick dolphin or a calf that strays from its mother. In Port Phillip Bay, the large male dolphins that usually live outside the bay come inside at the beginning of October, which is the same time that the bronze whaler sharks come into the bay to mate and give birth. Male dolphins form a guard around the females and young to protect them during this time. Sharks usually keep their distance from the dolphins.

Yes, Sharks can eat dolphins. They are actually part of the diet of the great white shark. It is a common misconception that dolphins go after and kill sharks all the time.

Sharks can reach up to amazing speeds in a short distance, so they will eat a dolphin if they catch one.but that only goes for small dolphins but not the big dolphins.

Could a shark beat up a squirrel?
In the classic sense of the word? No. Not really. Animals don't really fight each other in that sense. A shark could certainly eat a squirrel, though, given the chance. However, if you for some reason included both of them in a fighting game, like Capcom's vs., Nintendo's SSB, or Tekken, I have a hard time seeing a tiny squirrel whaling on a tiger shark. It just doesn't seem possible. In the water, the shark could beat up the squirrel. On land ... the shark can still probably beat up the squirrel.
