The narwhal goes through summer and winter migrations. In the winter, it migrates to deeper waters. For example, in terms of the northern Canada-Greenland region of their natural range, they head to the pack ice under Davis Strait and Baffin Bay. In the summer, they migrate back to shallower waters.
