The use of the tusk depends upon the particular animal. Some suggest that tusks may be used for aggressive behaviorbe it defensive or offensive, breaking the ground or ice, feeding, or fighting. But not one of those uses tends to be listed in regard to the narwhal. The narwhal was one of the animals that Charles Robert Darwin [February 12, 1809-April 19, 1892] studied. Darwin's conclusions tend to be supported by the findings of subsequent researchers. At least in the case of the narwhal, tusks are used aggressively or utilitarianly. In fact, they hold down the social role of male dominance, rank, and sexual predation.
