They have no natural predators in their area. However, man can be considered an unnatural predator (physically or with changing the environment). Enemies: Other polar bears and humans directly, and indirectly by humans through loss of habitat for oil exploitation, sea pollution and global warming.The cubs are in danger from adult males, man, wolves.
Man is the only animal the polar bear fears.

Polar bears don't really have any predators, although killer whales are known to prey on and eat polar bears. Humans are also predators of polar bears, though most often the tables can turn if a human is not armed with a weapon and makes a foolish decision to run for their life instead of standing still!
