Mr. Peneston-

 Are there narwhales in Antarctica?

I have always thought that narwhales where one of the most interesting animals in the world and I would love to go to the arctic to see them.  Along with beluga whales and bowhead whales they are symbols of the polar waters such as the areas north of Canada and near Greenland.  However, while the Southern Ocean does not have narwhales, I have seen many Minke whales and Orcas.    
 Thanks for the question,
