Predators are very important at maintaining a healthy ecosystem.

A predator will usually target the old, weak, sick or injured animals, leaving more food for the survival of the healthy animals.
They will catch healthy animals when they can, but killing off the sick or injured helps maintain healthy prey populations. It ensures that the healthy and fit animals will reproduce and this helps with natural selection.
Predators are useful at maintaining healthy prey populations, as too many herbivores could potentially strip an entire landscape of vegetation.
If predators disappeared…
Herd animal populations would grow uncontrollably, with disease and natural disasters being the only thing to slow the herd growth.
Plant material would become scarce and may eventually disappear from the landscape.
Ecosystems around the world would be vanquished.
Many people fear predators, especially big animals such as sharks, lions and bears.
