The only true predator a white shark has is the killer whale. Last year a number of white sharks were found floating off the California coast. The evidence indicated an attack and then riping apart of the sharks belly, just to get to the liver and heart.
Man will catch and kill white sharks for trophy or recreation. If the shark is eaten then the human becomes a predator. By definition a predator will consume all or part of its prey.
When any shark species is very young and small it is a prey item for just about anything bigger than it.
People mistaking call domestic cats a predator. When in reality it is more like most humans. Killing for sport and recreation.

the great white shark became extra to the endangered checklist because of fact its inhabitants has dropped because of unregulated commerce and extreme searching. the great white shark is the real predator of the sea and this is not killed by using the different predator interior the sea. even although, people have killed a great form of white sharks to get their enamel and jaws for paying for and advertising and their meat for pills.

Occassionally the Killer Whale hunts them. However because urine passes through the skin of the Great White they are not good tasting. I am not sure if this affects Killer Whales hunting them. Also I think the Sperm Whale has feed on Great Whites on occassion. Humans do not hunt the Great White for food.

The Killer whale (orca) sometimes will kill and eat white sharks, I do believe there is such footage on youtube!
I'm guessing that one of those giant squids could probably eat a great white as well.
I've never heard that sperm whales eat sharks; however, they do eat giant squids - so if a giant squid ate a shark then it was eaten by a sperm whale...
Orcas!

the great white sharks are at the top of the food chain, the only predator is man, they kill out of ignorant, fear, hatred, the worst of all they were killed for their fins(pectoral, dosal & tail)
