Has a shark ever killed and eaten a dolphin?
Yes! In some parts of the world, dolphins are frequently preyed upon by large shark species such as whites, bull sharks and tiger sharks. In general, dolphins will avoid close encounters with predatory sharks, and ignore those not viewed as being a danger. Thanks for using ChaCha!
