Narwhals Are Real

Recently I entered a conversation in which I discussed Narwhal’s. You know, those whale things with ivory horns that maraud all about the ocean, causing a commotion… Okay If you haven’t seen this video, you haven’t been on the internet long: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykwqXuMPsoc Watch this and then continue reading. GOOD! Now that you’ve had a pretty awesome musical education, you might be wondering why I am talking about this in the first place, and so back to my conversation. The person whom I was discussing these creatures with was convinced that these creatures were mythical beast that didn’t exist in real life. I was baffled by this ignorance, after convincing him that they were real I took to the internet and found the subject highly debated. So now I take it upon myself to tell you all that the Narwhal is very real. I have for you hear an excerpt from national Geographic to explain the details:

  The narwhal is the unicorn of the sea, a pale-colored porpoise found in Arctic coastal waters and rivers. These legendary animals have two teeth. In males, the more prominent tooth grows into a sword like, spiral tusk up to 8.8 feet (2.7 meters) long. The ivory tusk tooth grows right through the narwhal's upper lip. Scientists are not certain of the tusk's purpose, but some believe it is prominent in mating rituals, perhaps used to impress females or to battle rival suitors. Females sometimes grow a small tusk of their own, but it does not become as prominent as the male's. Narwhals are related to bottlenose dolphins, belugas, harbor porpoises, and orcas. Like some other porpoises, they travel in groups and feed on fish, shrimp, squid, and other aquatic fare. They are often sighted swimming in groups of 15 to 20, but gatherings of hundreds—or even several thousand—narwhals have been reported. Sometimes these groups become trapped by shifting pack ice and fall victim to Inuit hunters, polar bears, or walruses. Inuit people hunt the narwhal for their long tusks and their skin, an important source of vitamin C in the traditional Arctic diet.

ANNNNNNNNNNNNND NOW YOU KNOW :D Now go do something useful.
