Best Answer

Because people hunt them for their skin and tusk.

2nd Answerer says: Technically speaking, that is; "according to the IUCN", they are not currently "Endangered", they are merely "Near Threatened". The most current recognized (yet disputed) threat to their survival is global warming.

Narwhals are killed for their body parts to supply foodand shelter, and for their tusks to provide a source of income. Inuit hunters of the Canadian Arctic kill narwhals to meet Inuit needs for having enough food to eat and for having materials to build their shelters from the cold. Hunters of fortune kill narwhals to earn easy income by selling narwhal tusks to private collectors.

Because they are so awesome. They're like an underwater unicorn, also, they have a kickass facial horn. They're the jedi of the sea. And people want to eat them

For food, and for the parts of the whale that can be sold to manufacturers of many products.

Very much the same reason why cows, chickens, and fish are killed in our part of the world.
