Do orcas protect humans from sharks : Because of their intelligence and social nature, orca whales are unlikely to attack humans out of aggression or hostility. In fact, there have been numerous instances of orca whales coming to the aid of humans who were in danger, such as when a group of orca whales helped a diver escape from a shark attack.
In theory, the combination of eucalyptus, chili, cloves, cayenne pepper, neem, tea tree oil, citronella and beeswax creates an odor that sharks dislike and will seek to avoid if applied to a surfboard.

Do sharks hurt whales
Live shark attacks have been reported on dolphins, seals, sea lions and whales. Though predation on live baleen whales is less common than on other marine mammals, it is recognised that sharks do pose a threat particularly to juvenile or moribund whales (Weller, 2002).They do, sometimes, just not very often and only under specific circumstances. It's true that they tend to avoid us and attacks don't happen nearly as often as they could. In recent years, orcas have even taken to attacking boats, sinking them, and depositing their passengers into the drink.Though killer whales have on rare occasions been observed hunting sharks in coordinated groups, this kind of solo predation has never been witnessed. Most orca attacks of sharks have been in noticeable groups of two to six, making it easier to overpower a shark and its powerful jaws.

That was until a whale lead her back to the safety of her boat.Tens of millions more sharks and rays are killed each year, primarily through illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing (IUU). As a result of overfishing, over 300 shark and ray species are Red listed as vulnerable, endangered, or critically endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
What color do sharks hate : As far as colors go, it is not clear if any particular color would make a person completely “invisible” to sharks underwater.
