Can a horsefly kill a mouse? Proportionally, each pair is the same size difference. The obvious answer is that the tiger shark would have to work ridiculously hard at it, especially considering the nearly two feet of skin and blubber it would have to chew through to sever any veins or arteries.

No. Whale sharks eat small creatures like krill. They are filter feeders like baleen whales.

Do sharks eat tuna?

Yes, when the stomach contents of various sharks were examined, tuna fish were occasionally found. However, generally speaking, tuna fish can swim faster than almost all species of sharks. Tuna fish are ranked among the fastest species in the ocean. Bluefin tunas, yellowfin tunas, and tunnys can swim especially fast. Marlins, sailfish, and wahoos can swim even faster than all species of tuna fish. Blue sharks can swim as fast as tuna fish but they prefer to eat squids and smaller fish instead of tuna fish, which they eat only occasionally. The oceanic whitetip shark, which occasionally eats humans after a ship sinks, is the exception. Despite swimming slower than all species of tuna fish, tuna fish are frequently found in the stomachs of oceanic whitetip sharks. Oceanic whitetip sharks wait for and ambush large schools of tuna fish. Canned tuna can contain skipjack tuna, albacore tuna, longtail (tonggol) tuna, or yellowfin tuna but never contains bigeye tuna or bluefin tuna because bigeye tuna and bluefin tuna end up being used for sashimi and sushi.


Do sharks eat big fishes?

There are between 360 and 400 known species of sharks, and their diet is not all the same. In general, sharks prefer live fish. However, they have been known to eat dead fish, and some species are considered valuable for how they clean up the sea of dead and wounded fish. Great white sharks have been known to feed on dead whales (which are mammals, not fish).
