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.
