What are
Narwhals?

Narwhals​ are facinating creatures. A
Narwhals horn is actually a giant tooth made out
of ivory called a ​tusk​. The Narwhal will live in
very cold climates with temperatures arranging
around -50 degrees. Also, Narwhals 40% of mass
is blubber. Blubber is the fat of sea mammals
like whales or seals.

Narwhals can sometimes have 2 tusks, but it
is very rare to see one and the chances of
seeing one are very low. Narwhals tusks can
grow to be around 8 feet. The size of a
Narwhal including it’s tusk is approximately 17
feet.



A Narwhals life

Narwhals lives are quite simple. When a
Narwhal is born they hunt and live with the
blessing​. But soon the baby Narwhals will take
over the blessing. Then, the leader Narwhal will
find a safe place for the blessing to live.

Next, a Narwhal will find a mate and
repopulate the blessing. After that, the Narwhals
will protect their young from predators. Lastly,
the old Narwhals will die while the young take
over the blessing.



Narwhals vs
Whales

While Whales and Narwhals may look sort of
simmilar they have a lot of differences!

Narwhals have a tusk. They also live in cold
climates. Narwhals are not as big as a Whale.
Also, Narwhals are found in a group called a
blessing.

Whales are incredibily big and live in mostly
warm climates. Plus, Whales are not together
with each other very often.

The reason these 2 animals are the same is
because they both are ​mammals​ and are from
the same family.



Narwhals big
problem

Narwhals are n​ ear threatened​ because of
hunting, polution, and possibily global warming. This
could make Narwhals go extict. That is why we
should do what ever we can to protect them. If
we can do this then the Narwhals will be safe.

Hunting Narwhals is bad because they might
not be able to repopulate in time. Polution is
incredibily bad because if the Narwhals eat it
they might die and choke. Global warming is also
bad because it can melt the icebergs where the
Narwhals live and they might not be able to
survive the heat.



How to save the
Narwhals

Narwhals are near threatened and need our
help! The problem will not be solved unless we do
something to fix it. The first thing we can do is
make a law to stop hunting Narwhals. Then, we
could stop poluting the air and water.

Next, we should stop putting Narwhals in zoos.
This would help their population grow. If we do
this then Narwhals will be safe.
