1/9/2015 Narwhal Kalyn Naylor Narwhals are an Arctic species of cetacean. Narwhals are rarely found. It is one of two species of white whale in the Monodontidae family. It mightalso be related to the Irrawaddy dolphin. The name narwhal is from the Dutch name narwal which in turn comes from the Danish narhval which is based on the Old Norse word nar meaning corpse. Which is a reference to the narwhals color.



1/20/15 Maned Wolf Kalyn Naylor The Maned Wolf is red, black, and can have little white. It rises it mane when it's frightened or want to frighten other animals. It hunts at night, and relys on its amazing sense of sight, hearing, and smell. When it sees its prey it pounces, grabs the victim, and then shakes it to death. The wolf is a natural runner. Its long legs help it move swiftly and fast through tall weeds and grass. I personally think this wolf looks like a fox.
