About Belugas & Narwhals

Belugas are the chatty ones. Sailors once called them sea canaries for the whistles, clicks and chirps that carry through the hull of a boat. Narwhals keep to the deepest, darkest Arctic water, and that long spiral tusk is really a tooth that grows through the upper lip. Both live along the edge of the ice, surfacing in the cracks to breathe, and both share those waters with slow bowheads and keep a wary ear out for orcas, their one real predator besides polar bears and people.
