While narwhals are not really porpoises, they are a member of the same suborder as porpoises. This makes narwhals pretty cool. That, and the fact that they have a giant unicorn-like horn protruding from their face.
In fact, the 'unicorn of the sea' is so iconic that a barbecue skewer has been fashioned in its likeness. Created by a young designer from New York, she has a Kickstarter campaign to help make these mythical narwhal barbecue skewers a reality.
I may have to settle for a narwhal shirt because I'm not sure if these skewers will clear customs here in South Africa as they may be considered swords...

Thanks for the narwhal love from across the globe!
ReplyDeleteMan, customs can be such a pain at times, I hope these don't get caught up for international shipments...
