Other species of jellyfish are among the most common and important jellyfish predators, some of which specialize in jellies. Other predators include tuna, shark, swordfish, sea turtles, and at least one species of Pacific salmon. Sea birds sometimes pick symbiotic crustaceans from the jellyfish bells near the sea's surface, inevitably feeding also on the jellyfish hosts of these amphipods or young crabs and shrimp.

Lobsters are their own prey, but they're really scared of sharks. Today, Man is the greatest enemy of the adult lobster. But almost any predatory fish can be a danger to a lobster, especially the codfish and certain sharks. Parasites also prey on lobsters. Younger, smaller lobsters are very vulnerable to attack, as are molting animals.
