The land mammal with the fewest teeth is the armadillo. It has just a few peg-like molars. However, apart from some mammals which have no teeth at all (such as anteaters, echidnas and platypuses), the mammal with the fewest teeth is the narwhal. A marine mammal, the narwhal has just two teeth. These teeth are not inside the narwhal's mouths, but are buried in their upper jaws in both males and females. Only one tooth is visible, and that is the left tooth of the male, which can grow to around 2.4 metres.
