Who are the enemies of the killer whale?

Answer 1

Few animals can defend themselves from a pack of hungry, killer whales a.k.a. orcas. I would not say they have any enemies, because of there big diet. They would even eat a baby blue whale!! :( One animal inparticular is the sperm whale. If an orca got close to a grown sperm whale, it might even kill it!!!

Answer 2

This is a liberally political question. Orcas have no natural enemies. The question is actually implying man is the Orca's enemy.

This is despite the fact that the whaling industry has been pretty much dismantled. In addition to international legislation that has been introduced to protect this beautiful creature.

There are some who believe the theory of climate change and the belief that this hypothetical force is caused by man will be the destruction of the Orca.

Answer 3

orcas are top of the marine food chain; the transient types eat seals, other dolphins, whales (including blue whales) and great white sharks. in fact, Great White Sharks are known to flee whenever an orca is near- they would rather swim across an entire ocean (literally) then face an orca. the only enemy of the orca is the human, with our pollution and harpoons.

Answer 4

The world may never know who the killer whales natural enemies are, but man is their only known killer.
