General Description:
The narwhal is a toothed whale that lives in the Arctic. It's single long 'horn' or tusk (which is actually a protruding tooth) is perhaps one of the most popular examples of a 'unicorn horn' in existence. The tusks are used primarily to determine hierarchy and rank; and can be up to three metres long. Some narwhals are double-tusked, and every now and then the females will grow one as well. They do a lot of deep-sea diving. They are hunted for meat and ivory. They have never done well in captivity, and always end up dying within a few months or a year.
