From CA F&G;White Shark facts:
White sharks play a crucial role in the marine ecosystem by helping to suppress pinniped (seals and sea lions) populations. The only real threat white sharks face are from humans, as well as the occasional killer whale.
Because of their elusive nature, there are no population estimates available for white sharks. However, experts agree that their numbers are extremely low.
