Well, we taste like pork, so anything that would eat a pig will eat us. We are probably pretty tasty if a bit lean compared to seals. I think sharks don't eat people for a similar reason to why orcas don't, we don't live in the ocean so we are too different from their natural prey and animals don't like to diverge from their known food sources much.
