Deep thoughts: Unicorns exist in the ocean. (Video)

I was watching TLC's ""Frozen Planet Channel," and saw the unicorns of the sea that are actually whales with on long tusk. Actually, the males have the tusk, and people used their tusk to sell.

In fact, Queen Elizabeth used the tusk of a Narwhal. She paid as much money as she did for her castle. I have never seen a narwhal before and really thought this rated a deep thoughts article.

Narwhals are cool and you definitely don't seem them very often, like the snow leopard which is one of my favorites. Thanks for posting this and enjoy nature!

Okay - here's a cool piece of trivia: the Narwhal's pike isn't bone - it's actually a tooth! Talk about a dental bill! :-D

I was watching this, too. I had never heard of this, and found it very interesting! Maybe this is where the unicorn tales came from, as people adapted the tales told by their sailor kin.
