Yes, some species of shrimp can eat whelks, particularly when they are smaller or in vulnerable stages. Shrimps are opportunistic feeders and may prey on various invertebrates, including whelks, if the opportunity arises. However, the diet of shrimp can vary widely depending on their species and habitat.

Do small fish eat whelks?

Small fish generally do not eat whelks, as whelks are marine snails with hard shells that are difficult for fish to consume. However, some predatory fish may prey on juvenile whelks or their eggs.
