Best Narwhal Coloring Pages Ideas
Narwhal or often called the sea unicorn is an animal that is native to the Pole. They live in cold waters and have a unique appearance. It was caused by the long horns that the Narwhal’s head was. Unfortunately the population of this unique animal is increasingly threatened due to climate change and human hunting.
Everyone who saw the long horns of this whale would have thought it was a means of self-defense that other animals such as rhinos also have. In fact the Narwhal’s horn is not like that, the horn was part of the tooth of a horned whale. The long protruding object was the Narwhal’s teeth that grew beyond the limit. Therefore not all horned whales have ‘horns’.

Why does Narwhal have horns?
Narwhal or often referred to as the unicorn of the ocean until now still holds many mysteries, especially about the existence of a horn protruding from the animal’s head.
In addition to hunting, researchers have also found that narwhals use their horns to help them see through echolocation (sonar). Without hard enamel, the narwhal’s teeth are more sensitive and offer an advantage over other species that also use echolocation.
Like most toothed whales, the narwhal uses sound to navigate and hunt for food. Narwhals primarily sound through “clicks”, “whistles”, and “taps”, which are created by the movement of air between the spaces near the blowholes. These sounds are reflected from the oblique front of the skull and focused by the animal’s voice melon, which can be controlled by muscles. Echo clicks are mainly produced for prey detection, and for finding obstacles at short distances. It is possible that individual “bangs” are capable of confusing or immobilizing prey, making it easier to hunt, but this has not been verified.

The Origin of Narwhal
Narwhal (Monodon monoceros) is the name of one of the least known whales to man. The name “narwhal” comes from the Old Norse language meaning “corpse whale”. The name was given because of his habit of sometimes swimming motionless on the surface of the sea with his stomach facing up and his body color with gray spots like a drowning sailor.
This species is known to only live in all Arctic waters, precisely in the Arctic Ocean. Narwhal is a toothed whale and includes carnivores that eat marine animals such as fish, shrimp, or squid.
The narwhal’s mysterious spiral horns serve as giant sensors that help it know the quality of the water and to “smell” other narwhals.
Narwhal is also a rare type of whale. Its body length reaches 4 to 4.5 meters. While the length of its horns which reaches 2.4 meters has long been a puzzle that experts are trying to investigate.
