The hunt and the use of the narwhal tends to be regulated. In part, the regulations are intended to protect the narwhal and to benefit the Inuit peoples of northern Canada and western Greenland. Narwhal hunting happens to be a traditional activity around which the entire Inuit culture revolves. In fact, the Inuit use just about everything that's edible/usable from the narwhal: blubber, meat, organs, and skin.

How do narwhals protect themselves?

Are narwhals helpful to humans?

Narwhals are not directly helpful to humans in the same way that domesticated animals might be, but they play a significant role in the Arctic ecosystem, which can indirectly benefit human communities. Their presence indicates the health of marine environments, and studying them can provide insights into climate change and ocean health. Additionally, some Indigenous cultures in the Arctic have relied on narwhals for food and materials for tools and art. Overall, while they may not serve a utilitarian purpose, their ecological and cultural significance is valuable.
