The main causes for population decline are predation, pollution, maritime transportation, and climate change. The main narwhal predators are hunters, killer whales [Orcinus orca], and polar bears [Ursus maritimus]. The pollution of the air and of the waters is worldwide in its scale and its impact. Maritime transportation contributes to that pollution, and also may affect narwhal migration routes. Climate change affects the life cycle of the narwhal and of narwhal predators and prey. The narwhal population has specific habitat and dietary needs. Any impact on either impacts the narwhal population.

What do you think of a narwhal?
A curiosity and a source of amazement are what I think of a narwhal. It's curious how a narwhal looks, what with its frontwards projecting tusk that really is one of two teeth. That tusk may be a reason for its survival and for its decline. For example, the tusk may help a narwhal navigate ocean waters. At the same time, the tusk lures hunters in search of fortune. Also, it's amazing how a narwhal adapts to a challenging environment. For example, a narwhal calls Arctic waters home. Its coloring apes and therefore blends in with the play of light and shadow in the Arctic Ocean's upper waters.
Is a narwhal's population low?
Yes, the narwhal population is a matter of concern to scientists. Estimates over the past five years range from 45,000 to 75,000. One problem is the challenge of an exact count of narwhal numbers. The narwhal lives in Arctic waters. So there are the challenges of accessibility and of weather when it comes to precise tallies of the narwhal population. Additionally, there are concerns over the human hunt for the narwhal. Narwhal body parts fill a longstanding need and hold a traditional role in Inuit culture. Because of these cultural connections, narwhals are hunted by the Inuit. But also because of these cultural connections, the Inuit hunt tends not to get out of hand. In other words, the Inuit don't tend to hunt narwhals to the brink of extinction. They take just what they need, so that there always will be narwhals to fill the narwhal niche in Inuit culture. The same can't be said of other narwhal hunters. For example, other hunters may kill the narwhal just for its tusk. Such hunting tends to be uncontrolled. It may be carried out in such an unregulated way that the narwhal population may drop to alarmingly low numbers.
