Animals. 4.

One of the strangest Of sea animals
Is the narwhal, coniectured by some
to be the original of the tabled uni
corn. The great popularity Of this
graceful cetacean lies in its long tusk,
polished ivory shaft, straight as an
arrow and sharp as a lance, which
protrudes from its head to a great
distance. This formidable and gilt
tering appendage gives to the animal
a striking and spectacular appear
ance. The narBhals appear Of the
coast Of Greenland in schools, making
excursions into the various bays and
fords in search Of food. A band Of
a hundred or more form picturesque
sight when blowing through the wat
or in miiitary-like procession, the
long, gl.ttering horns al rising In
unison as they come up to the sur
face to blow. Their advent is hailed
with delight by the Eskimos. IS they
are said to be the forerunners Of the
early approach Of the right whale
which uses the same kind Of food as
the narwhal.
