The natural predators, and enemies of the Harp Seal are about the same. The Greenland Shark, Walrus, Polar Bear, and humans are all natural predators of the Harp Seal. But, humans are more than just a predator, they are a threat or enemy too. Humans hunt the Harp Seal on a current basis, but then fishing lines, nets, and other equipment used to capture other species is carelessly left in the water by the fisheries, entangling the Harp Seal. The pollution, trash and plastics dumped in the oceans are an ongoing, and growing threat, along with the destruction, and over use of their habitat by man.
