The narwhal skull is a unique and specialized structure, characterized by its long and spiraled tusk. Narwhals are medium-sized toothed whales that inhabit the Arctic regions of Canada, Greenland, Norway, and Russia. The narwhal skull is approximately 2 meters long and houses the animal's brain, sensory organs, and teeth. The most distinctive feature of the skull is the long, spiral tusk that protrudes from the front of the skull. The tusk is actually a modified tooth, with a nerve that runs through its center. Scientists are still uncertain about the purpose of the tusk, but it is believed to play a role in the narwhal's social behavior or foraging strategies. The narwhal skull is an important cultural symbol for many Inuit communities, who have hunted these animals for thousands of years.
