Why won't a shark attack prey if dolphins are around?

Sharks may avoid attacking prey if dolphins are present because dolphins are known to exhibit aggressive and protective behavior towards potential threats, including sharks. The presence of dolphins can create an unpredictable and risky situation for the shark, which may deter them from attacking. Additionally, dolphins are fast and agile swimmers, making it difficult for a shark to successfully catch their prey in the presence of dolphins.

Yes.ANSWERI don't think it is safe to say that dolphins would always save humans from a shark attack. However, there ARE several accounts of humans, who were attacked or threatened by a shark, and were rescued by an onslaught of dolphins who attacked the shark.


Is it true that a dolphin can beat up a shark?

No, this is a fallacy. Although dolphins and sharks do not seek each other to attack, they appear to have a mutual respect. Normally, a shark will only attack a lone dolphin, a sick dolphin or a calf that strays from its mother. In Port Phillip Bay, the large male dolphins that usually live outside the bay come inside at the beginning of October, which is the same time that the bronze whaler sharks come into the bay to mate and give birth. Male dolphins form a guard around the females and young to protect them during this time. Sharks usually keep their distance from the dolphins.
