Daily, a narwhal may eat as much as an estimated 30 kilograms/66 pounds worth of fish. But that's only a guess, and one that represents an average of extremes. In fact, narwhal feeding habits involve yo-yo feeding and dieting between two main yearly habitats. Specifically, the narwhal migrates between, and feeds differently at, high Arctic winter feeding grounds and low Arctic summer grounds.

Did hunters want narwhal tusks or eggs?

Answer #1 by Mediatech Narwhal are mammals, so they do not lay eggs. Answer #2 by Ginezumi Hunters want narwhal body parts if they seek food, and narwhal tusks if they seek profit. The narwhal has a long, curved tusk that projects frontwards out through the mouth. Inuit hunters generally are interested in narwhal body parts as sources of food. Non-Inuit hunters generally aren't interested in narwhal body parts as food. They seek the narwhal's tusk.
