No, sea lampreys are not scavengers; they are parasitic. They attach themselves to fish using their suction-cup mouths and feed on their blood and bodily fluids. This feeding behavior can be detrimental to host fish, often leading to their death. While they may consume dead fish if necessary, their primary mode of feeding is through parasitism.
