What fish eats swordfish?

Swordfish are apex predators, meaning they sit at the top of the food chain. This means they have very few natural predators.

While there are some instances where larger sharks (like great whites) might prey on swordfish, the most significant predator of adult swordfish is actually humans.

Here's why:

* Fishing Pressure: Swordfish are highly sought after for their meat, leading to significant fishing pressure. Overfishing can deplete populations and make them more vulnerable to other threats.

* Lack of Natural Predators: The lack of natural predators in the open ocean means swordfish have relatively few threats other than humans.

So, while there are some instances of other animals consuming swordfish, humans are the most significant predator by far.
