Narwhal
Narwhals live in the
Arctic Ocean. (They like very cold temperatures.)
They like to eat squids,
cuttle fish, cods, crustaceans, (such as shrimp)
and other large fish. Their
enemies are polar bears and eskimos.
Narwhals look like a small
dophin with a long ivory tusk. Their
maximum life span is about
fifty years. Females do not have tusks.
Only males do. Narwhals do
not have a dorsal fin. They do not migrate in the winter. As
the ice melts in the summer, narwhals move further north
into the Arctic.
