Humpback chub will eat just about anything that can fit in their mouths (invertebrates, smaller fish, vegetation, and most human foods, especially pasta, and meat pieces, however they do not like broccoli or bell peppers, even after being sauteed.) Chub have learned to eat what is highly available so that they could survive within stochastic Colorado River system since the Miocene, at least before the system has been filled with dams.

Does any other animal eat the humpback chup fish?

The humpback chub, a freshwater fish native to the Colorado River system, has few natural predators due to its specific habitat and adaptations. However, larger fish species, such as northern pike and other predatory fish, may prey upon juvenile humpback chubs. Additionally, birds and mammals that hunt fish may occasionally target them, though they are not a primary food source for these predators. Overall, the humpback chub's primary threats come from habitat loss and competition rather than predation.
