Yes, whale sharks, despite being the largest fish in the ocean, can have natural predators. Young whale sharks are more vulnerable and can be preyed upon by larger species like orcas and large sharks. However, adult whale sharks have few natural predators due to their size. Most threats they face come from human activities rather than other animals.
