Regarding the mispelling of the Noble Narwhal.
The narwhal, or narwhale, Monodon monoceros, is a medium-sized toothed whale
that lives year-round in the Arctic. One of two living species of whale in
the Monodontidae family, along with the beluga whale, narwhal males are
distinguished by a long, straight, helical tusk, actually an elongated upper
left canine. Found primarily in Canadian Arctic and Greenlandic waters,
rarely south of 65°N latitude, the narwhal is a uniquely specialized Arctic
predator. In the winter, it feeds on benthic prey, mostly flatfish, at
depths of up to 1500 m under dense pack ice. Narwhals have been harvested
for over a thousand years by Inuit people in northern Canada and Greenland
for meat and ivory, and a regulated subsistence hunt continues to this day.
While populations appear stable, the narwhal has been deemed particularly
vulnerable to climate change due to a narrow geographical range and
specialized diet.
