Killer whales can at times kill and eat polar bears, though this is rare. An orca is more likely to eat a seal, a sea lion, or an otter than a polar bear.
Recently in Vancouver, Orcas have been seen killing other predators, ripping apart the sharks, and even taking down black hawks. History of Orcas killing brown bears will be made in June.
Technically they can, if the whale is already dead and the bear is scavenging. However, one polar bear wouldn't have the fortitude to kill an adult orca, and the calfs are rarely away from their mothers. Polar bears have been known to attack the smaller beluga whales successfully, though.
yes they can cause they live in a lot of waters attacking animals like the walruses
Yes, in fact the only threat to the polar bear is the killer whale, or orca.

Polar Bears and Killer Whales (Orca) are the two main predators of the beluga whale.

The polar bear has no actually prey but some polar bears have been known to have been killed bye killer whales and Greenland sharks. Sometimes there has been the polar bear preying on them!!! Small cubs are preyed on by adult polar bears. Humans are pretty much the only other real issue. They can and do hunt polar bears. This is the reason their population went down many years ago to dangerously low levels. The limits on hunting allowed them to regain population.
