How do humans affect narwhals?

Answer 1

Answer #1 They hunt them for their tusks. Answer #2 by Ginezumi Humans affect Narwhals by hunting, competing for their food sources, and cluttering and polluting their Arctic environment. The Inuits of Canada and Greenland hunt narwhals for food, shelter, and tools. Other hunters kill the narwhal just to take and sell the precious, valuable tusk. Humans compete with narwhals for food sources. Narwhals are picky eaters; and prefer cod, halibut, shrimp, and squid. This aquatic fare also appeals to humans, as food and as subjects of research study. Humans also impact the narwhal environment. They clutter narwhal sea routes with surface and underwater vessels and scientific equipment. They pollute the narwhal's Arctic habitat with emissions and waste from equipment and vehicles. Likewise is the narwhal's Arctic habitat sullied by global warming, whose natural causes are worsened by human inputs to warming temperatures and waters, melting ice, and impacted marine life. For example, narwhals have specific feeding and living conditions to meet. Ice formations and marine life need certain temperature, salinity and pressure levels to abound or perish.
