Me, trying to justify buying a narwhal tusk to my mom: I can stab my brother with it
I wanna talk about Narwhals some more
And yes, the one I want to get is a cast of one housed in the natural history museum in London - so not real ivory.
Also! Usually males are the only ones that grow the tusk, but about 15% of females do to! And sometimes - because a tusk is a large canine tooth - both canines can grow out and a Narwhal can have two tusks!


Way to go you funky little sea unicorns
