What is the sharks natural enemy?

Other sharks. More than anything, humans are the number one killer of sharks. People kill millions and millions of sharks every year. It has recently been discovered that the Killer whale is a hunter and efficient killer of the great white whale. Probably the most efficient killer of great whites, including man. Scientists discovered that killer whales will take advantage of the fact that sharks are paralized when flipped on their backs. A killer whale drives into the shark, grabs it behind the head and flips it over and holds it until the shark is immobilized and then the pod will feast on the shark and eat the shark and even removes the liver and enjoys it as a group.
